カンムリハシリチメドリ

The Chirruping Wedgebill (Psophodes cristatus) is a distinctive Australian passerine belonging to the family Psophodidae. This medium-sized, ground-dwelling bird inhabits the arid and semi-arid shrublands of inland Australia, particularly mulga (Acacia aneura) woodland and spinifex grasslands in Queensland, New South Wales, and South Australia. The wedgebill is named for its laterally compressed, wedge-shaped bill, which is well adapted for processing the hard seeds and invertebrates that form its diet. Its plumage is predominantly sandy brown above with paler underparts, providing excellent camouflage in the red-earthed Australian interior. The chirruping wedgebill is renowned for its far-carrying, repetitive calls — a series of ascending or descending notes that echo across the sparse desert vegetation — and different populations have been documented producing distinct song dialects. Two species of wedgebill exist in Australia, and they are most easily separated by their calls rather than appearance. Breeding occurs during periods of rainfall when invertebrate and seed availability peaks; nests are cup-shaped structures concealed in low shrubs. The species is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, with its population considered stable across its extensive range. It is a characteristic and ecologically important component of Australian arid-zone bird communities.

コウテイペンギン

世界最大のペンギンであるコウテイペンギン（Aptenodytes forsteri）は体高最大1.2m、体重45kgで、地球上で最も過酷な環境の一つである南極大陸に生息しています。零下60°C以下の真冬の暗闇の中で繁殖し、雌が海上にいる間、雄が65日間足の上で育雛嚢の下に一つの卵を温め続けます。数千羽からなる群れで個体が暖かい中心部を循環するいわゆるハドリング行動は、協調的な生存戦略の傑作です。
