Song & Call Comparison

High-pitched, chattering whistle: a rapid 'kleek-kik-ik-ik-ik'. Surprisingly weak and thin for such a large raptor. Also gives a lower 'kwit-kwit' call near the nest.
Northern Gannet
Loud, harsh 'urrah-urrah' grunting and croaking at breeding colonies on sea stacks. Also gives a softer 'karrr' in flight. Large colonies are extremely noisy during the breeding season.

About These Birds
흰머리수리
흰머리독수리는 미국의 국조이자 국가 상징입니다. DDT 살충제 사용으로 인해 한때 멸종위기에 처했으나 놀라운 회복을 보여 2007년 멸종위기종 목록에서 제외되었습니다. 이 강력한 맹금류는 어떤 새보다 가장 큰 나무 둥지를 만들며, 어떤 것들은 2톤 이상이 됩니다.
Northern Gannet
The northern gannet is a spectacular plunge-diver, folding its two-meter wingspan into an arrow shape to hit the water at up to 100 km/h. Air sacs under the skin and a reinforced skull protect it from the impact. Bass Rock in Scotland hosts over 150,000 gannets, the largest single colony of any seabird in the world.
