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 лиотрикс

Native to the Himalayas and southern China, they have been introduced to Hawaii, Europe, and Japan from the cage bird trade. Highly social, living in noisy flocks of 6–30 birds in undergrowth and forest edge. Listed as Least Concern globally despite introduced range concerns.
