About These Birds

Nachtigall

Die Nachtigall gilt als einer der begabtesten Sänger der Vogelwelt und hat Dichter von Homer bis Keats inspiriert. Männchen singen komplexe Strophen mit über 250 verschiedenen Typen, oft nachts während der Brutzeit. Trotz ihres berühmten Gesangs ist die Nachtigall unscheinbar gefärbt und hält sich verborgen im dichten Unterholz auf.

Banggai Jungle-flycatcher

The Banggai Jungle-flycatcher is a Near Threatened flycatcher of the family Muscicapidae endemic to Peleng Island in the Banggai Archipelago of Indonesia. It inhabits forest understory and edges, where it catches insects by sallying from low perches. Its extremely restricted island range makes it vulnerable to habitat change.
