Белоголовый орлан

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.

Обыкновенный гракл

<em>Quiscalus quiscula</em>, commonly known as the common grackle, is a passerine bird belonging to the genus Quiscalus within the family Icteridae. This adaptable species occupies various aerial, terrestrial, and aquatic environments, reflecting a broad ecological tolerance that has allowed it to thrive across a range of landscapes. Its documented range includes the United States as its primary stronghold, with additional records from Belgium, Denmark, Norway, and the United Kingdom, where individuals may appear as vagrants or established non-native populations. Common grackle is typically associated with open and semi-open habitats including agricultural fields, marshes, parks, and suburban areas. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
