About These Birds
Eurasian Eagle-Owl
最大型猫头鹰之一。翼展近2米。低沉的鸣声可传至4千米外。顶级掠食者。
Eurasian Wren
The Eurasian wren is one of the smallest birds in Europe but possesses an astonishingly loud song for its size. Males build multiple dome-shaped nests, from which the female selects one to line and use. In British folklore, the wren is known as the king of birds for outwitting the eagle in a flying contest.
