About These Birds
Common Ostrich
非洲鸵鸟（Struthio camelus）— 世界上最大的鸟，栖息于非洲草原。虽然不能飞翔，但奔跑速度可达每小时70公里，产下世界上最大的蛋。
Great Tit
The great tit is the largest European tit and one of the most studied wild birds in the world. Research at Wytham Woods in Oxford has monitored great tit populations since the 1940s, contributing enormously to ecology and evolution. These innovative birds famously learned to open milk bottle tops in 20th-century Britain.
