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.

Senegal Parrot

A compact, medium-sized African parrot with yellow-green and orange-brown plumage and a diagnostic black and yellow head pattern, Senegal parrots inhabit open woodland and forest edges across West Africa from Senegal to Cameroon and Chad. Highly regarded as pet birds for their playful personalities, ability to mimic sounds, and strong bond with individual owners. Resilient and adaptable, they are common in agricultural areas and are heavily trapped for the pet trade. Listed as Least Concern.
