Morepork they emulate the bird's distinctive two-pitched call. It has dark brown plumage with prominent pale spots, and golden-yellow eyes. It is generally nocturnal, though is sometimes active at dawn and dusk, retiring to roost in secluded spots in the foliage of trees. The morepork feeds on insects and small vertebrates, hunting by pouncing on them from tree perches. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the morepork as being of least concern on account of its large range and apparently stable population. English naturalist John Latham wrote of the New Zealand owl in his 1780s work "A General
Programming in the large and programming in the small Programming-in-the-Small", IEEE Trans. on Soft. Eng. 2(2). In computer science terms, "programming in the large" can refer to programming code that represents the high-level state transition logic of a system. This logic encodes information such as when to wait for messages, when to send messages, when to compensate for failed non-ACID transactions, etc. A language that was designed to explicitly support programming in the large is BPEL. In software development, programming in the small describes the activity of writing a small program. Small programs are typified by being small in terms of their source code size, are easy to specify,
