About These Birds
Japanese White-eye
일본동박새는 동아시아 전역에 서식하는 작고 활발한 새이다. 뚜렷한 흰 눈 고리가 특징이며 올리브색과 녹색의 밝은 깃털을 가진다. 꽃의 꿀과 작은 곤충, 과일을 먹으며 숲, 공원, 정원 등 다양한 환경에서 생활한다.
Northern Fulmar
The northern fulmar is a long-lived seabird that can survive over 40 years. It defends its nest by projectile-vomiting a foul-smelling stomach oil at intruders, which can mat the feathers of predators and cause fatal loss of waterproofing. Fulmars have expanded their breeding range dramatically southward over the past two centuries.
