About These Birds
Zaunkönig
Der Zaunkönig ist einer der kleinsten Vögel Europas, besitzt jedoch einen für seine Größe erstaunlich lauten Gesang. Männchen bauen mehrere kuppelförmige Nester, von denen das Weibchen eines zum Auspolstern auswählt. In der britischen Folklore gilt der Zaunkönig als König der Vögel, weil er den Adler in einem Flugwettbewerb überlistete.

Weighing about 18.2g with a wingspan of 12.8cm, it has boldly barred flanks and white-streaked upperparts. It forages actively near the ground for insects in tangled undergrowth.
