About These Birds

Eastern Bluebird

The eastern bluebird is a beloved symbol of happiness in North America. Once declining due to habitat loss and competition from introduced species, populations recovered dramatically thanks to a massive citizen science nest box campaign. These gentle thrushes form loose winter flocks and huddle together in nest boxes during cold snaps.

Amami Thrush

The Amami Thrush is a large thrush weighing 172 g with a 32 cm wingspan, endemic to Amami Oshima Island in Japan. It forages on the forest floor for earthworms and invertebrates beneath dense subtropical canopy.
