Birds are the topic today because it's National Bird Day.

Birds range in size from the tiny Bee Hummingbirds that weigh only 0.06 oz to the Ostrich, which can weigh up to 346 lbs and can reach 9 feet tall!

Dr. Katrina sees birds and these are 3 of her patients. From left to right we have: Poncho, a Blue-Fronted Amazon, Percy, a Blue & Gold Macaw and Helga, a Buff Orpington Chicken.

While she has yet to see a Bee Hummingbird, she does see birds ranging from little canaries and finches up to larger birds like peacocks and swans!
