About These Birds
Wanderdrossel
Die Wanderdrossel gilt in weiten Teilen Nordamerikas als Vorbote des Frühlings. Trotz ihres englischen Namens ist sie eine echte Drossel und mit dem europäischen Rotkehlchen nicht verwandt. Wanderdrosseln ziehen zwei bis drei Bruten pro Jahr auf und gehören zu den ersten Vögeln, die im morgendlichen Vogelchor singen.
Black-breasted Thrush
The Black-breasted Thrush is a medium-sized thrush of South and Southeast Asian forests, with males showing a striking black head, breast, and back contrasting with a bold white belly and orange flanks. It breeds in the Himalayan foothills and mountains of India, Myanmar, southern China, and northern Indochina, descending to lower elevations in winter. It feeds on fruits, berries, and invertebrates in forest undergrowth.
