It looks that the answer is... YES!\nIt's a bird called JERDON'S COURSER [Rhinoptilus bitorquatus], an endangered species, one of the fifty rarest birds of the world. It is a rare and local endemic to the Eastern Ghats of Andhra Pradesh and extreme southern Madhya Pradesh, India, with a population estimated at 50-250 individuals.

I believe they're cavity nesters. In other words, they would nest in holes in trees in the wild, so it wouldn't look like much from the ground. They are also a common users of manmade bird houses.

I don't know where you are on the planet but links below have info.\n\nFirst link is to the best bird ID site - it loads well and has sound and video files - terrific for confirming ID of what you see in the field.\n\nIt's spring here in Northeast US - just saw my first Phoebe - they eat bugs, so weather is getting warmer.

birds can be found all over the world. It all depends on what kind of bird.

Here's all I could find ... maybe it can get you started?\n\nWhite Stork - a silent bird - White Storks hardly ever give voice. In the world of birds it is an uncommon situation.  Stork’s lower larynx – birds’ vocal organ – is so retarded in development that it does not produce sounds.\n\nhttp://birds.poland.pl/didyou/article,White_Stork_a_silent_bird,id,95312.htm

Birds.\n\nBirdwatching or birding is the observation and study of birds (the science proper is termed ornithology). The term "birding" is of American origin; "birdwatching" is the more commonly used word in the United Kingdom and Ireland.\n\n"Twitching" is a British term used to mean "the pursuit of a previously-located rare bird." In North America it is more often called "chasing", though the British usage is starting to catch on in N. Am., especially among younger birders. The British term is said to come from the frenzy that descends on some when they receive news of a rare bird. The term may derive from one of its first proponents, who used to arrive on his motorbike in freezing weather in the early 1960s, still "twitching" from the cold. The end goal of twitching is often to accumulate species on one's lists. Some birders engage in competition with one another to accumulate the biggest species lists. The act of the pursuit itself is referred to as a "twitch" or a "chase". A rare bird that stays put long enough for people to come see it is called "twitchable" or "chaseable".\n\nTwitching is probably most highly developed in the United Kingdom, The Netherlands and Ireland because their small sizes make it possible to travel within their borders quickly with relative ease. The most popular twitches in the UK have drawn crowds of up to 5,000 people at any one time (Golden-Winged Warbler in Kent). Twitching is also highly popular in Finland and Sweden. In the United Kingdom there exists a particular twitchers' vocabulary which is surprisingly well-developed and potentially confusing for the uninitiated. In the UK for example, "dipping" is the act of missing the rare bird you tried to see, "gripped off" is how you feel if other twitchers see the bird but you didn't, "supression" is the act of concealing news of a rare bird from twitchers, and a "dude" is someone who doesn't know much about rare birds at least. Similar vocabularies have developed in all countries where twitching is popular. Twitchers often have mobile phones and (especially in Europe) pagers in order to keep constantly informed of rare bird sightings and weather. The latter is important, since the right winds can lead to drift migration from the east or "Yankees" caught up in the tail end of hurricanes from the west.\n\n\nSome birdwatchers are keen rarity seekers and will travel long distances to see a new species to add to one of their "lists", e.g., life list, national list, state list, county list, etc. These fanatical birders are commonly known by the light-hearted slang term twitchers, particularly in the United Kingdom (though non-birders often mistakenly use twitcher as a synonym for birder or birdwatcher).

Yes, or at least from some predatory archosaurs. There are currently two strong theories, each with their supporters: birds are dinosaurs (Padian, Chiappe, etc.), or birds are non-dinosaur archosaurs (Feduccia).\n\nIf they evolved within the Dinosauria, as much evidence seems to show (see link), then according to a cladistic classification they ARE dinosaurs (the same way that we are Sarcopterygians, even if we're not fish-like anymore).
