About These Birds
Japanbrillenvogel
Der Japanbrillenvogel ist in ganz Ostasien ein vertrauter Gartenvogel und wird in Japan, wo er „Mejiro“ genannt wird, besonders geschätzt. Diese geselligen Vögel bilden außerhalb der Brutzeit Schwärme und sind wichtige Bestäuber von Pflaumen- und Kirschblüten. Auf Hawaii eingeführte Populationen sind allerdings invasiv geworden und konkurrieren dort mit einheimischen Kleidervögeln.
Black-chinned Yuhina
The Black-chinned Yuhina is a small, crested babbler of South and Southeast Asian montane forests, with a small upswept crest, black chin, grey head, and olive-brown upperparts. It ranges from the Himalayan foothills through southern China, Myanmar, Vietnam, and Taiwan, inhabiting the canopy and edges of montane forests. It is highly social, foraging in noisy mixed-species flocks and feeding on insects, nectar, and berries.
