About These Birds
Japanbrillenvogel
Der Japanbrillenvogel ist in ganz Ostasien ein vertrauter Gartenvogel und wird in Japan, wo er „Mejiro“ genannt wird, besonders geschätzt. Diese geselligen Vögel bilden außerhalb der Brutzeit Schwärme und sind wichtige Bestäuber von Pflaumen- und Kirschblüten. Auf Hawaii eingeführte Populationen sind allerdings invasiv geworden und konkurrieren dort mit einheimischen Kleidervögeln.
African Yellow White-eye
The African Yellow White-eye is a tiny, active passerine of the Zosteropidae family, weighing about 10 g with a wingspan near 11 cm. It moves energetically through forest canopy and woodland across sub-Saharan Africa, identifiable by its yellow-green plumage and conspicuous white eye-ring.
