About These Birds
Black Swan
검은 백조는 한때 모든 백조가 흰색이라고 믿었던 유럽인들에게 불가능하다고 여겨졌으며, 귀납적 추론 실패의 유명한 철학적 예가 됩니다. 서부 오스트레일리아의 주 새입니다. 검은 백조는 평생 짝 유대를 형성하며 양 부모가 포란과 새끼 양육을 공유합니다.
Great Tit
The great tit is the largest European tit and one of the most studied wild birds in the world. Research at Wytham Woods in Oxford has monitored great tit populations since the 1940s, contributing enormously to ecology and evolution. These innovative birds famously learned to open milk bottle tops in 20th-century Britain.
