Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animal on the cover of Windows System Policy Editor is a Crested Caracara. Caracaras are long-legged raptors that inhabit open country, forest, or savanna. Populations occur in Florida, northern Baja California, southwestern Arizona, Texas, Cuba, and Mexico, for which it is the national bird. The Crested Caracara has been called the "four-point-bird," because it shows white in all fours points in flight-head, tail, and wingtips. There is a black terminal band on the tail, and it has a black shaggy crest on a white head and neck. The crest makes the Crested Caracara look like a bald eagle with a bad toupee. The body is black, but many birds have a dark brown tint to them. They are insectivorious or omnivorious, but mostly feed on carrion. Their diet also includes living prey, such as small turtles, frogs, lizards, and snakes. Caracaras are generally sluggish, spending most of their time perching or walking about on the ground, although they can run quite swiftly.
