About These Birds
American Crow
미국까마귀는 북미에서 가장 친숙하고 지능이 높은 새 중 하나이다. 연구에 따르면 도구를 사용하고, 인간 얼굴을 기억하며, 복잡한 사회 구조를 이룬다. 북미 전역의 다양한 서식지에 적응력이 뛰어나게 서식한다.
Barn Owl
헛간올빼미는 어떤 올빼미보다 가장 비대칭적인 귀를 가지고 있어, 동물계에서 가장 정밀한 청각 위치 파악 능력을 지닙니다. 소리만으로 완전한 어둠 속에서 먹이를 잡을 수 있습니다. 헛간올빼미의 독특한 하트 모양 얼굴은 포물면 접시처럼 작용하여 소리를 어긋난 귀로 집중시킵니다.
