Hey, Birdorable. I predicted the Sandpiper Week and four species of sandpipers are joining the 'Meet the Birds' page. I have a list of four species of sandpipers; The Madagascar Snipe, Wood Sandpiper, Asian Dowitcher, and of course, the American Woodcock, which is the slowest bird in the world. Or the Pelican Week, which four more species of pelicans can join Birdorable. Species such as the Peruvian Pelican, Pink-backed Pelican, Spot-billed Pelican, and the largest species, the Dalmatian Pelican, will be joining the 'Meet the Birds' page.

There is a family called Aegithalidae (Long-tailed Tits). It has 11 species in this family. Even the Long-tailed Tit. Only one member of the Aegithalidae family. The Long-tailed Tit. Birdorable, you need to add the rest of the 10 Long-tailed Tits to the 'Meet the Birds' page. Species, such as the White-browed Tit-Warbler, Crested Tit-Warbler, Long-tailed Tit (Already in the page), Silver-throated Tit, White-cheeked Tit, Pygmy Tit, Black-throated Tit, White-throated Tit, Black-browed Tit, Sooty Tit, and the Bushtit. Birdorable, you should have a week called 'Aegithalidae Week' which adds the rest of the Long-tailed Tit species. Good luck!
