Green Sea Turtle
초록바다거북은 가장 큰 바다거북 중 하나입니다. 등딱지가 아닌 연골과 지방의 녹색에서 이름이 유래했습니다.
Wedge-billed Hummingbird
안데스 산맥과 남아메리카 북부의 습윤 삼림 및 삼림 가장자리에 서식하는 소형 벌새로, Schistes geoffroyi는 헬리코니아속 단화관 꽃에 적응한 독특한 쐐기형 짧은 부리를 지닌다. 저지대부터 해발 2,400미터까지 분포하며, 주로 짙은 운무림 하층부에서 먹이를 찾는다. 수컷은 녹색과 청동녹색의 은은한 이리데슨트 깃털을 가진다. 삼림 지면 그늘에서 자주 정지비행하므로 관찰이 어렵다.
