Bird #3

The male snow bunting is 6 1/4 cm almost pure white, except for his black back, central tail and primary wing feathers. In winter, his white plumage becomes rusty brown. The female has a gray-brown head and back in summer and is simply paler and duller in winter. The snow bunting spends much of its time feeding on seeds and insects on the ground, where it can run quickly and hop.  The nest is made from dead grass, moss and lichen and is among stones. The female lays 4 to 6 eggs, which she incubates for 10 to 15 days. The male bird feeds his mate during the incubation period and helps to feed the young.

Bird #2

The rock ptarmigans are 13-15 in a half inches tall they depend on camouflage for defense, and to achieve this in the changing background of their northerly range, they adopt different plumages. The summer plumage is mottled to blend with the forest, while during the winter snows ptarmigans have white plumage, only the tail feathers remaining dark. Rock ptarmigans feed on leaves, buds, fruits and seeds and on some insects in the summer.  They are monogamous birds; the male defends a small territory at the breeding grounds. The female lays 6 to 9 eggs in a leaf-lined hollow on the ground and incubates them for 24 to 26 days. The cygnets must make the long migration south when only 80 to 90 days old.

Bird #1

The Gyrfalcon can be dark, white or gray. 20-25 in tall. They are Most breed north of the timberline and remain in the Arctic all year, but some populations migrate south for the winter. When hunting It can make rapid dives on prey, like the peregrine, but this is less characteristic. Birds are its main prey, although it feeds on some mammals, particularly in winter. Rock ptarmigan and willow grouse make up the bulk of the gyrfalcon's diet, and their numbers can affect its breeding rate. In years when these birds are abundant, gyrfalcons produce large clutches, but in years of scarcity they lay only a couple of eggs or do not breed at all.  Gyrfalcons perform display flights when courting. When the young hatch, both parents bring food to them.

Hudson river

Hudson river facts

The river is 850miles long and 650miles wide it connects to the Atlantic ocean so if I need any other way to go I can take the Atlantic ocean but that may be risky because of how big it is.

Advantages and disadvantages of my transportation

The positive things about travaling in a canoe is that its light weight easy to use and I can traval in shallow waters and it is a quiet way to get around. The disadvantage is that it is unstable and I have to paddle by myself so I may be tired very quickly.

Transportation

Transpotation

I will be taking a canoe to my new biome. I will fallow the rivers as far as I can go and if I come to a break in the river I will have to walk the rest of the way but the rout I have chosen I will be able to use the rive most of the way.
