Common poorwill Pink-footed goose Emperor penguin Baltimore oriole As far as I know the it can't be the last three!! So I pick Common poorwill?? Answer: The common poorwill is the only bird known to hibernate. During the winter, instead of migrating to a warmer climate like other birds, the common poorwill can slow its metabolic rate and drop its body temperature so it can survive several weeks or months without eating. The common poorwill was not only the very first bird to be discovered to hibernate but it is also the only known species of bird to do so.

Lincoln Memorial Monticello The U.S. Capitol Mount Vernon 21 hours ago, Aubrey said: Monticello Answer: The front (obverse) of the nickel pictures a profile of Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States of America and the principal author of the Declaration of Independence. The back (reverse) of the nickel pictures Monticello, Jefferson's house (which was designed by Jefferson himself), located in Virginia. Monticello was the primary plantation of Thomas Jefferson who began designing and building Monticello at age 26 after inheriting land from his father. Monticello has been designated a National Historic Landmark. Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2

My guess is Kubrick Answer: John Landis is a director known for his comedy films, his horror films, and his music videos with Michael Jackson. He directed National Lampoon's Animal House, An American Werewolf in London, Trading Places, Michael Jackson's music video Thriller, The Blues Brothers, and Beverly Hills Cop III. He was approached by Michael Jackson to make a video for his song, "Thriller". The resulting video significantly impacted MTV and the concept of music videos; it has won numerous awards, including the Video Vanguard Award for The Greatest Video in the History of the World. In 2009 (months before Jackson died), Landis sued the Jackson estate in a dispute over royalties for the video; he claimed to be owed at least four years' worth of royalties.
