<p>The brolga is a common wetland bird species of tropical and South-Eastern Australia, and New Guinea. Within New South Wales, brolga numbers have been reduced because of widespread drainage of suitable habitat for agriculture, land reclamation, and water regulation, but these birds are still common and widespread throughout Australia&#x2019;s north.

<p>With all the turmoil in the world today, I thought I&#x2019;d write an article that is on the adorable side. We need more adorable. The puffin is Iceland&#x2019;s most revered bird. They are also quite the tourist attraction to boot. They have also been observed using tools. Puffins are listed [&#x2026;]</p>
