Size, length, time, cites all good. I can't see the page on Google Books that notes the hook, but I was able to verify it easily with many other sources. Not a big fan of the use of technobabble though; there's a number of terms that could easily be replaced with plain english terms. I'd also suggest moving the taxonomy section down, I think people are more interested in the bird than the arguments about i. And the image is fantastic!
