They're sparrow sized, easter egg blue, with pale blue chests fading down to white.  Lovely songs.  Females of course are much more drab, but that hasn't stopped the males from fighting over her!  We're located in south-central British Columbia in Canada.  Any idea what we have here?

Mountain Blue Bird is the only thing that looks similar in my Audubon Bird Guide to the Western Region.  \n\nhttp://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?fr=FP-pull-web-t&p=Mountain%20Bluebird

Could be a coyote...they make all kinds of really creepy dog-like sounds, and I think they're not too rare in Nova Scotia...the second link is a page with a bunch of recordings of different coyote sounds.

I can't quite tell from the pictures, but it looks like they might be the nymphs of boxelder bugs (Boisea trivittatis).  They are harmless bugs that feed on maple trees, but sometimes wander into people's homes in large numbers looking for a place to overwinter.\n\nI have never seen eggs like that for boxelder bugs though.  Boxelder bug eggs are usually a rather scattered spattering of eggs on the underside of a maple leaf somewhere.  So they could be something else, like a milkweed bug, or possibly even a Coreid (which do often lay their eggs in a linear row like that).  Coreids are predatory, and can actually inflict a rather nasty bite if handled (one bite I received from a tiny nymph was actually much more painful than any wasp sting I've ever gotten).\n\nCheck out the True Bugs pages on this site:  http://whatsthatbug.com/ for some images that might give you a better idea of what you have there.

Starling - Sturnus vulgaris (how rude!)\nwestern meadowlark - Sturnella neglecta (how sad!)\nsavannah sparrow - Passerculus sandwichensis (how yummy!)\nThen there's the one that cracks me up even though it doesn't mean anything else in English: roseate spoonbill - Ajaia ajaja. The j's are pronounced like y's.\n\nSorry, I only know birds!

it's an application of the Hardy Weinberg Law.  page 8 should help you out.\n\n\nhttp://www.zoology.ubc.ca/genetics/334-1998/pop.pdf

There are Ceiba trees at the ruins ... they have pods with many seeds surrounded by a dense mat of cottony fibers. Does this fit? Or it could be a legume (bean-like seed?) of some sort or a member of Bignoniaceae (flat winged seed?). If it is 9 months old it hasn't faced a full Canadian winter yet, I hope you are going to protect it!

Looks like a female golden crowned kinglet to me.  Scientific name is Regulus satrapa.

Those are called joeys because they're indeed young marsupials too. They belong to family Petauridae and are basically gliding possums. The dark longitudinal dorsal stripe is characteristic of all members of the family.\nAnd they're absolutely cute, I agree!!\nOn behalf of chinchillas, I must say that they are completely gray, with no stripes whatsoever. If you like them, check these mountain viscacha (genus Lagidium) with its young. It's a close relative of chinchillas :-)\nhttp://www.stevemetzphotography.com/photo%20pages/Mammals/Viscacha.htm

The female breasts are like toy trains.  They are made for the kids, but daddies like to play with them too.  :-)

Birds hear a lot better than we do, and worms moving around in soil make noise that is distinctive. OR, maybe they have Xray vision! :-)

Here is a site that may help you. See if the pic of the grouse eggs matches your description.\n\nhttp://www.ronausting.com/birds/rgrouse.html

The first clue should be where they are from.  The were located along the shores of the Pacific Northwest, this would point towards seafood.  For protein it would be mostly whale meat and salmon.  For some additional help you might try http://www.makah.com

Probably great-tailed grackles. They're like huge blackbirds, very noisy and aggressive. Here's a photo and a link to their distribution map. I usually see them when I'm in Arizona in the spring.

probably like any sea bird.. I know I live on the coast of an ocean and the birds poo is usually greenish/grey/with specks of white in it.. I guess depending on the fish or junk they ate prior to that..
