About These Birds
Keel-billed Toucan
용골부리투칸은 중앙아메리카의 열대 우림에 서식하는 화려한 투칸 종이다. 무지개색의 화려한 부리가 가장 큰 특징으로 몸 크기에 비해 매우 크지만 속이 비어 있어 가볍다. 과일을 주로 먹으며 둥지는 나무 구멍을 이용한다.
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.
