mcfarmer,
Thanks for this story. I did not know about it.........VERY fascinating. Amazing really.
Here another link with more...........that also doesn't include the bs comment from the first story's scientifically illiterate reporter suggesting the birds may go extinct again and face a potentially grim future from the fake climate crisis (because of what is an increase in sea levels of 1 inch/decade)............and is exactly why people get misled.
Even if a grim future awaits us, perhaps iterative evolution will allow an incarnation of mankind to eventually reappear on Earth, after the long nuclear winter has passed.
Actually,
Evolution is one of the most incredibly interesting topics that exist:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution
Evolution is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations.[1][2] These characteristics are the expressions of genes that are passed on from parent to offspring during reproduction. Different characteristics tend to exist within any given population as a result of mutation, genetic recombination and other sources of genetic variation.[3] Evolution occurs when evolutionary processes such as natural selection (including sexual selection) and genetic drift act on this variation, resulting in certain characteristics becoming more common or rare within a population.[4] It is this process of evolution that has given rise to biodiversity at every level of biological organisation, including the levels of species, individual organisms and molecules.[5][6]
So interesting, in fact that Evolution deserves to be recognized in a special way here............with daily fascinating facts on evolution, starting.............today, May 10, 2019!
