About These Birds
Demoiselle Crane
쇠두루미는 가장 작은 두루미 종이지만 가장 혹독한 이동을 하며, 해발 8,000m 이상의 히말라야를 넘어 인도의 월동지로 향한다. 우아한 외모로 마리 앙투아네트에게 명명되었으며 세계에서 두 번째로 풍부한 두루미 종이다.
Northern Cardinal
The northern cardinal is the state bird of seven US states, more than any other species. Unlike many songbirds, both males and females sing, often in duets. Cardinals do not migrate and their brilliant red plumage against winter snow makes them a favorite among backyard birdwatchers.
