About These Birds
Amsel
Die Amsel ist einer der bekanntesten und beliebtesten Singvögel Europas, geschätzt für ihren volltönenden, flötenden Gesang, den sie in der Morgen- und Abenddämmerung von Dächern und Baumwipfeln vorträgt. Ursprünglich ein scheuer Waldvogel, hat sie im Laufe der letzten zwei Jahrhunderte städtische Lebensräume besiedelt und sich zu einem der erfolgreichsten Stadtvögel entwickelt.
Black-hooded Thrush
The Black-hooded Thrush is a medium-sized thrush with a black head and upper breast, olive-brown back, and rufous-buff flanks and belly. It inhabits humid montane forests of the northern Andes in Colombia and Venezuela, foraging at elevations from 1,000 to 2,500 meters. It feeds on fruits, earthworms, and insects, foraging on the forest floor and in the lower canopy.
