About These Birds

Hüttensänger

Der Hüttensänger ist in Nordamerika ein beliebtes Symbol des Glücks. Nachdem seine Bestände durch Lebensraumverlust und Konkurrenz durch eingeführte Arten zurückgegangen waren, erholten sie sich dank einer groß angelegten Nistkasten-Kampagne von Bürgerwissenschaftlern deutlich. Diese sanften Drosseln bilden im Winter lockere Schwärme und drängen sich bei Kälteeinbrüchen gemeinsam in Nistkästen zusammen.

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.
