About These Birds
European Roller
파랑새롤러는 비행 중 구르고 굴러다니는 화려한 공중 묘기에서 이름을 얻었다. 수컷은 번식기에 이 공중 묘기로 암컷을 유혹한다. 밝은 파란색과 밤색이 눈에 띈다.
Raggiana Bird-of-paradise
The raggiana bird-of-paradise is the national bird of Papua New Guinea, featured on the national flag and coat of arms. Males gather at traditional display trees to perform elaborate courtship dances, hanging upside down and shaking their spectacular flank plumes. Alfred Russel Wallace first described the species in 1873.
