About These Birds
American Robin
美洲鸫（学名Turdus migratorius）被广泛视为北美春天的使者。尽管名为"知更鸟"（robin），实为鸫科（Turdidae）成员，与欧洲知更鸟无近缘关系。雄鸟胸部橙红色，头部黑色，体长约25厘米。食蚯蚓和浆果，常见于草坪和公园。
Keel-billed Toucan
The keel-billed toucan is the national bird of Belize and one of the most recognizable birds in the Neotropics. Its oversized bill, which can be a third of its body length, is actually very light due to its hollow honeycomb structure. Toucans roost communally, with up to six adults squeezing into a single tree cavity.
