The human-ness of birds

Monday, November 12, 2012

In general, we underestimate the intelligence and emotions of animals. I recently read that hyenas have the intelligence of primates - they can count and solve problems. This snippet of information kind of breaks my heart. I love these portraits of wild cockatoos by Leila Jeffreys because of how human they look. One or two of them even remind me of people I know.
