Why birds are smarter than we think

Birds have not been known for their high IQs, which is why a person of questionable intelligence is sometimes called a birdbrain. Yet in the past two decades, the study of avian intelligence has witnessed dramatic advances. From a time when birds were seen as simple instinct machines responding only to stimuli in their external worlds, we now know that some birds have complex internal worlds as well. This beautifully illustrated book provides an engaging exploration of the avian mind, revealing how science is exploding one of the most widespread myths about our feathered friends--and changing the way we think about intelligence in other animals as well.

Bird Brain looks at the structures and functions of the avian brain, and describes the extraordinary behaviors that different types of avian intelligence give rise to. It offers insights into crows, jays, magpies, and other corvids--the "masterminds" of the avian world--as well as parrots and some less-studied species from around the world. This lively and accessible book shows how birds have sophisticated brains with abilities previously thought to be uniquely human, such as mental time travel, self-recognition, empathy, problem solving, imagination, and insight.

Written by a leading expert and featuring a foreword by Frans de Waal, renowned for his work on animal intelligence, Bird Brain shines critical new light on the mental lives of birds.-- "Choice"

Not true EcoTank-style compatibility with ET-15000 refill ports
Color: B/B/B/B, Color: B/B/B/B
I previously purchased the full Hiipoo sublimation ink set for my Epson ET-15000 and had a great experience. Those bottles included the correct EcoTank-style keyed refill tips that insert directly into the printer’s tank ports and allow clean, gravity-fed filling. Because the black tank gets used faster, I later ordered the black refill bottle separately. Unfortunately, this bottle does not include the keyed EcoTank nozzle. Instead, it comes with a pointed tip and syringes for manual transfer. The syringes also do not fit the ET-15000 refill opening, which is designed for the keyed gravity-fill system. As a result, I had to attempt a manual pour and ended up with ink spilling around the tank area. The ink itself has worked well for me in the past and I like the Hiipoo brand overall, but this refill bottle is not directly compatible with the ET-15000 the same way the original set was. Buyers expecting the same refill experience should be aware of this difference.

Great product, quality colors and vibrant prints
Color: 1BK/1C/1Y/1M
Best Sublimation Ink I have found so far. Great size bottles for the price you pay. Lasts a long time and the colors print great and when you press the print the colors come out BEAUTIFUL and VIBRANT! Dries quickly after printing so no worries on smudging but even after sitting over a month on the paper still presses like you printed it that day!

Consistent, Vibrant Results That Match My Designs Perfectly
Color: 1BK/1C/1Y/1M
I’ve been consistently purchasing this Hiipoo sublimation ink for my sublimation printers, and I’ve been extremely pleased with the results. The print quality is excellent, with vibrant colors and clean transfers every time. What I really appreciate is how true the final product turns out compared to my original designs. The colors stay accurate, and the finished results look exactly the way I intended, which is very important for my projects and products. This ink has been reliable and consistent, and I will definitely continue using it for my sublimation work.

No issues with this ink. Used it to turn a printer into sublimation printing and the ink is perfect and easy to fill.
