About These Birds
Eurasian Wren
굴뚝새는 유럽에서 가장 작은 새 중 하나이지만 놀랍도록 큰 소리로 노래한다. 몸무게 10g 미만이지만 노래 소리는 500m 이상 퍼진다. 추운 날에는 집단으로 모여 체온을 유지한다.
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.
