About These Birds
Steinadler
Der Steinadler zählt zu den kraftvollsten und wendigsten Greifvögeln der nördlichen Hemisphäre. Von zahlreichen Kulturen verehrt, wird er seit Jahrhunderten in der Falknerei eingesetzt, insbesondere von kasachischen Adlerjägern Zentralasiens. Bei der Jagd können Steinadler im Sturzflug Geschwindigkeiten von über 240 km/h erreichen.
Blaustirnamazone
Die Blaustirnamazone ist einer der beliebtesten Ziervögel der Welt, geschätzt für ihre Fähigkeit, menschliche Sprache nachzuahmen, und ihr geselliges Wesen. In freier Wildbahn übernachten diese geselligen Papageien gemeinschaftlich in großen Schwärmen und fliegen paarweise zur Morgendämmerung zu Futterplätzen. Lebensraumverlust und Fang für den Heimtierhandel bedrohen die Wildbestände.
