About These Birds
Emu
オーストラリア固有の世界第二位の大型鳥類。1932年の「エミュー戦争」で知られる。飛べないが速く走れる。
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.
