About These Birds
Belted Kingfisher
ミヤマカワセミは雌の方が雄よりも派手な色彩を持つという点でユニークで、赤褐色の腹帯が余分に加わっている。これらの騒々しい鳥は独特のガラガラとした鳴き声で縄張りを宣言する。重厚な嘴を使って河岸に最大2.4mもの深さの営巣穴を掘る。
Keel-billed Toucan
The keel-billed toucan is the national bird of Belize and one of the most recognizable birds in the Neotropics. Its oversized bill, which can be a third of its body length, is actually very light due to its hollow honeycomb structure. Toucans roost communally, with up to six adults squeezing into a single tree cavity.
