About These Birds

Hoopoe

오디새(후투티)는 얼룩말 무늬 날개와 분홍계피색 깃털, 검은 끝 화려한 볏을 지닌 구대륙에서 가장 독특한 새 중 하나다. 유럽·아프리카·아시아에 넓게 분포한다.

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.
