About These Birds
Common Nightingale
나이팅게일은 조류 중 최고의 가수 중 하나로 칭송받으며, 수십 가지의 풍부하고 복잡한 음표로 이루어진 노래로 유명하다. 수컷은 낮과 밤을 가리지 않고 노래하며 특히 봄 번식기에 활발하다.
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.
