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。

Common Forget-Me-Not

<em>Myosotis arvensis</em> is an annual or biennial herbaceous plant in the family Boraginaceae, order Boraginales, commonly known as the field forget-me-not or common forget-me-not. The species is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, with widespread stable populations. <em>Myosotis arvensis</em> has a cosmopolitan distribution, recorded across Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania, and South America, where it has been widely naturalized beyond its native European and West Asian range. The plant typically grows in disturbed habitats including arable fields, roadsides, gardens, hedgerows, and open woodland, tolerating a broad range of soil types. It produces characteristic small, sky-blue five-petaled flowers with a yellow center, borne on curved, scorpioid cymes that straighten as the flowers open — a feature typical of the borage family. The plant typically reaches 15 to 40 centimeters in height and is covered in soft, spreading hairs. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
