Vulture

There are 22 species of vultures.These birds don't hunt live prey, but feast on carrion - the flesh of dead animals.
Many vultures use their keen sense of smell to locate carrion. Other vultures find food using their sharp eyesight.
Vultures that don't have feather on their heads are the ones that stick their heads into carcasses while feeding. If their heads had feather , bits of the decaying meat would get stuck to them.
The king vulture of Central and South America is bald. It also has black , bright red and Yellow markings on its head and neck.

Disneyland

          Imagine you wake up one fine morning and find yourself in a land full of your favorite characters from fairly tales and cartoon films!
          You walk out of your house and step out onto a yellow brick road. Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse have their house nearby. Winnie the Pooh is tasting honey from the honey pot. The Big Bad Wolf is trying to blow down the house of the three little pigs. Oh and look! Here is the white rabbit from Alice in wonderland, look how he’s scampering off into his hole. Snow White is cooking a meal for the seven dwarfs. Aladdin is taking a ride on his magic carper and beauty and the Beast have become friends forever. Isn’t it a wonderful place! But does a world exist? Yes it does. It is called Disneyland.   
Disneyland
          Walter Elias Disney created this world for us on 17 July 1955, in California. Walt Disney was a film producer, director and animator. He started the Walt Disney Company with his brother Roy Disney. The company produced a number of successful animated movies which have been passed down from generation to generation. Animated movie are movies in which characters down by hand behave like real people for they can walk, talk, laugh, cry and do nearly everything that real people do in films. Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck films are the best Disney films.
           
Walter Elias Disney
  But how did Walt Disney think of creating Disneyland? One day Walt Disney took his daughters to an amusement park. The children had fun while he set on a bench and got bored. He then thought that there should be a place where children and parents could have a good time together. And that’s when he thought of Disneyland, a sort of dream world “I don’t want the public to see the world they live in while they’re in the park (Disneyland). I want to feel they’re in another world” he said.
          Disneyland is a land of fantasy, a make-believe world. It is a land of fairies and magic. You can become a Cinderella or a Robin Hood, dine at Cinderella’s royal table, take a tour of this magical land in a steam train, watch Disney characters in the dazzling parade at night and so on. There is fun not only for children but there are events which parents enjoy as well. So what are you waiting for – pack your bags and get ready for some magic!

Kabir The Weaver Poet

Kabir was one of the greatest poets and saint of our country. His dohas  or two-line verses are read and sung even today.   Kabir was born in a Hindu family but was brought up by profession. He wove and sold cloth in the market. But he has not interested in making money. He was kind and wanted to help others.         
               Kabir was against the useless customs of society and religion. He taught bhakti or true love and devotion to God. He was against the caste system and tried to unite Hindus and Muslims.   
       When kabir died, Hindus and Muslims could not decide who should perform the last rites. It is said that when the sheet covering his body was lifted, people saw flowers instead of his body.
