About These Birds
Common Myna
인도찌르레기는 세계 100대 최악의 침입 종 중 하나로 지정될 만큼 적응력이 뛰어난 조류다. 갈색 몸통과 검은 머리, 눈 주위의 노란 피부가 특징적이며 세계적으로 많은 지역에서 번성하고 있다.
Roseate Spoonbill
The roseate spoonbill is the only spoonbill species in the Americas and one of the most striking wading birds in the Western Hemisphere. Like flamingos, their pink color comes from carotenoid pigments in their crustacean prey. Nearly hunted to extinction for their plumes in the 19th century, they have recovered substantially.
