Teacher: Bob please point to America on the map.
Bob: This is it.
Teacher: Well done. Now class, who found America?
Class: Bob did.
Interesting Fact: Woodpeckers don’t sing songs, but they drum loudly against pieces of wood or metal to achieve the same effect. People sometimes think this drumming is part of the birds’ feeding habits, but it isn’t. In fact, feeding birds make surprisingly little noise even when they’re digging vigorously into wood.
