Comb windmill grass
<em>Chloris pectinata</em>, the comb windmill grass, is a grass in the family Poaceae with a distribution across Asia, Europe, and North America. It grows in disturbed and open habitats including roadsides, waste ground, dry grasslands, and agricultural margins, reflecting adaptability to degraded and human-modified environments. The genus <em>Chloris</em> is recognized by its distinctive windmill-like arrangement of spreading finger-like branches bearing one-sided rows of spikelets, which give the species an ornamental quality. The species epithet pectinata refers to the comb-like appearance of the inflorescence. <em>C. pectinata</em> is an annual or short-lived perennial grass that reproduces primarily by seed. It is adapted to dry, warm climates and tolerates poor soils. In some regions, it is considered a ruderal weed, while in others it may serve as a minor forage grass. Specific biological metric data are not available in the current record.
Inseparable cabecinegro
El inseparable de collar amarillo (Agapornis personatus) es un pequeño loro restringido a las zonas áridas interiores del norte de Tanzania, caracterizado por su llamativo collar amarillo y frente azul-violácea. Vive en grupos en la sabana arbustiva y es muy popular como ave de compañía, por lo que individuos escapados se han establecido en diversas partes del mundo. Figura como Preocupación Menor (LC) en la Lista Roja de la UICN.
