ハクトウワシ

アメリカの国鳥であり保全の成功を象徴するハクトウワシは翼開長が最大2.4 mに達し、北米全域の水辺近くの森林や湿地に生息する。強力な空中捕食者兼腐肉食者で魚を主食とするが、水鳥や腐肉も捕食する。DDT汚染と狩猟によって1960年代にほぼ絶滅に瀕したが、農薬の使用禁止と絶滅危惧種法の施行により劇的に回復した。

clouded silver

The clouded silver (Lomographa temerata) is a geometrid moth in the family Geometridae found across temperate Europe and extending through Asia to Japan. The adult wingspan measures approximately 28–36 mm, with white forewings bearing irregular pale grey-brown cross-bands and stippling that create a subtle clouded silver-grey appearance against the white ground color. Adults fly in one generation from April to June, often resting on foliage and low vegetation with wings spread flat. The larvae feed on blackthorn (Prunus spinosa), hawthorn (Crataegus), and other Rosaceae shrubs in hedgerows, scrub, and woodland margins. The clouded silver is characteristic of landscapes with structurally diverse hedgerows, scrub edges, and woodland margins across Britain, Ireland, and continental Europe, where it can be relatively common. It is frequently attracted to light traps and serves as an indicator of diverse hedgerow structure with abundant blackthorn and hawthorn. Populations appear relatively stable across well-managed agricultural landscapes with retained hedgerow networks, though loss of traditional hedge management threatens many moth species associated with these linear habitats.
