About These Birds
Rotschwanzbussard
Der Rotschwanzbussard ist der am weitesten verbreitete und häufigste Bussard Nordamerikas. Sein durchdringender Schrei ist so unverkennbar, dass er in Film und Fernsehen oft über Aufnahmen von Weißkopfseeadlern gelegt wird. Diese anpassungsfähigen Greifvögel gedeihen in vom Menschen geprägten Landschaften und sind ein vertrauter Anblick auf Masten entlang von Autobahnen.

The Bateleur is an Endangered eagle of the family Accipitridae found in open savanna and woodland across sub-Saharan Africa. Weighing about 2,400g with an impressive wingspan of 100.1cm, it is distinguished by its extremely short tail and vivid red facial skin and bill. It soars for hours over vast distances, feeding primarily on carrion and occasionally taking live prey.
