About These Birds

Nymphensittich

Der Nymphensittich ist das kleinste Mitglied der Familie der Kakadus und einer der weltweit beliebtesten Ziervögel. Diese sanftmütigen, intelligenten Papageien können lernen, Melodien zu pfeifen und Geräusche nachzuahmen. Wildlebende Nymphensittiche sind Nomaden und ziehen im Schwarm durch das australische Outback, dem Nahrungs- und Wasserangebot folgend.

Seeadler

Der Seeadler ist der größte Adler Europas und der viertgrößte der Welt. Einst in Großbritannien ausgestorben, wurde er durch Schutzprogramme erfolgreich in Schottland und Irland wiederangesiedelt. Diese kraftvollen Greifvögel können über 25 Jahre alt werden und gehen lebenslange Paarbindungen ein.
