About These Birds
Anna's Hummingbird
Anna's hummingbird is the most common hummingbird along the Pacific coast and one of only three species resident in the United States year-round. Males perform spectacular dive displays, plummeting from 40 meters and pulling up with a loud chirp produced by tail feathers. Their body temperature can drop to near ambient at night to conserve energy.
Hawfinch
シメはヨーロッパの鳥の中で体の大きさに対して最も強力なくちばしを持ち、27〜43 kgの力でサクランボの種を割ることができる。その特徴的な外見にもかかわらず、著名なほど恥ずかしがり屋で観察が難しい。種割り時に発生する巨大な力を吸収するための頭骨の特殊な適応を持つ。
