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.

Розовый фламинго

The most widespread flamingo species, greater flamingos reach 1.2 meters in height and inhabit saline and alkaline lakes across Europe, Africa, and South Asia. Their distinctive pink coloration derives from carotenoid pigments in the algae and crustaceans they filter-feed through specialized bent bills. They breed in dense colonies numbering tens of thousands on hypersaline lakes toxic to most other species. Listed as Least Concern with stable populations.
