American Bald Eagle

The national bird of the United States and a symbol of American conservation success, bald eagles have a wingspan of up to 2.4 meters and inhabit forests and wetlands near open water across North America. Powerful aerial predators and scavengers, they specialize in fish but also take waterfowl and carrion. Nearly extinct by the 1960s due to DDT poisoning and hunting, the bald eagle recovered dramatically following pesticide bans and the Endangered Species Act.

Common Iora

<em>Aegithina tiphia</em>, commonly known as the common iora, is a small passerine bird in the family Aegithinidae. It is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. The species is recorded in Norway and occupies a variety of aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environmental zones, reflecting its use of diverse habitats including gardens, forests, mangroves, and scrubland across South and Southeast Asia. The common iora is notable for the striking breeding plumage of males, which display bright yellow and black coloration. It typically forages in tree canopies, gleaning insects from foliage. Diet information beyond general insectivory is not available in current records. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
