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-fronted White-eye
The Black-fronted White-eye is a small, active white-eye with olive-green plumage, a distinctive black forehead, and yellowish underparts. It is endemic to a few islands in the Solomon Islands group, inhabiting forest interiors, forest edges, and secondary vegetation. Like other white-eyes, it feeds on insects, nectar, and small fruits, moving energetically through the canopy in small flocks.
