  • KITE

    kite, any of numerous birds of prey belonging to one of three subfamilies (Milvinae, Elaninae, Perninae) of the family Accipitridae. Typically, a kite is lightly built, with a small head, partly bare face, short beak, and long narrow wings and tail. Kites occur worldwide in warm regions. Some kites live on insects; others are primarily scavengers but also eat rodents and reptiles; and a few are strictly snaileaters. Kites are buoyant in flight, slowly flapping and gliding with wings angled back. Several species are as graceful as terns.

    True kites, Milvinae, have rather narrow beaks, the upper mandible being wavy-edged. They are typified by the red kite (Milvus milvus)—of Europe, northern Africa, and the Middle East—and the black, or black-eared, kite (M. migrans)—found over much of the Old World. Both are large (to about 55 cm [22 inches]), reddish birds (the black kite darker), lightly streaked on the head, with long, angled wings and notched tail. The Brahminy kite (Haliastur indus; subfamily Milvinae) ranges from India to northeastern Australia. It is red-brown except for white foreparts. It eats fish and garbage. The buzzard kite (Hamirostra melanosternon; subfamily Milvinae) of Australia is a large black-breasted bird; it lives mainly on rabbits and lizards. It also eats emu eggs, reportedly dropping rocks on them to break the thick shells.

  • The Circle
    A circle is a round-shaped figure that has no corner or edges. It is a closed, two-dimensional curved shape. It is a set of all points in the plane that are a fixed point (the centre). Any interval joining a point on the circle to the centre is called a radius.

    An interval joining two points on the circle is called a chord. A chord that passes through the centre is called a diameter. Since a diameter consist of two radii joined at their endpoint, every diameter has length equal to twice the radius.

    A line that cuts a circle at two distinct point is called a secamt. Thus a chord is the interval cut off by a secant passing through the centre of a circle centre.

  • 5 facts about bats?

    Here are some facts about bats:

    1)Flight: Bats are the only mammals that can fly.

    2)Species: There are over 1,400 species of bats worldwide.

    3)Habitat: Bats live on almost every continent, from the Arctic to Argentina. They are well-adapted to urban environments.

    4)Diet: Most bats eat insects, but some tropical bats also eat fruit, frogs, fish, and blood.

    5)Echolocation: Bats use echolocation to navigate and hunt.

    6)Role in ecosystems: Bats are important pollinators, seed dispersers, and natural pest controls.

    7)Blood-sucking: Only three bat species are blood-suckers, and they don't actually suck blood. Instead, they use their teeth to make small cuts in the skin of sleeping animals and drink the blood that flows out.

    8)Paternal lactation: Male Dyak's fruit bats can produce milk from their mammary glands to feed their young.

    9)Related to humans: Bats are more closely related to humans than they are to mice.

    10)Order: All bats belong to the order Chiroptera, which means "hand wing" in Greek.

    11)Megabats and microbats: Bats are separated into two categories: megabats and microbats. Flying foxes are the largest megabats and can have a wingspan of up to 6 feet.
