About These Birds
Wanderdrossel
Die Wanderdrossel gilt in weiten Teilen Nordamerikas als Vorbote des Frühlings. Trotz ihres englischen Namens ist sie eine echte Drossel und mit dem europäischen Rotkehlchen nicht verwandt. Wanderdrosseln ziehen zwei bis drei Bruten pro Jahr auf und gehören zu den ersten Vögeln, die im morgendlichen Vogelchor singen.
Black-billed Thrush
The Black-billed Thrush is a medium-sized, plain thrush widely distributed across northern and central South America from Colombia and Venezuela south to Bolivia and Brazil. It has olive-brown upperparts, streaked brownish-white underparts, and a distinctive dark bill. It inhabits forest edges, secondary growth, gardens, and open woodland, feeding on earthworms, insects, and berries.
