白头海雕

白头海雕是美国国鸟，也是美国生态保护史上的成功案例，曾因滴滴涕（DDT）的广泛使用而濒临灭绝，经保护措施的实施后种群数量已显著恢复。该物种在IUCN红色名录中被评估为无危（LC），以白色头颈和尾羽与深棕色体羽形成的鲜明对比为主要识别特征。它们主要以鱼类为食，也会捕食哺乳动物和腐肉。

Christmasbush

Christmasbush (Ceratopetalum gummiferum) is a small tree or large shrub in the family Cunoniaceae, native to New South Wales, Australia. It is perhaps the best-known plant associated with the Australian Christmas season, as its small white flowers are replaced in summer by persistent, enlarged, bright red sepals that give the plant a highly ornamental appearance around the Christmas period. The species grows naturally in dry to wet sclerophyll forests and woodlands on sandstone and related soils along the coast and tablelands of New South Wales. It is a popular cut flower and is harvested commercially and from private gardens throughout the state. The genus Ceratopetalum contains several species, all endemic to Australia and New Guinea. Christmasbush is also widely cultivated in gardens for its ornamental value. It plays a modest ecological role in woodland communities, supporting insects and birds. The species tolerates a range of soil conditions but generally performs best in well-drained, acidic soils. Its drought tolerance once established makes it suitable for low-water gardens. Harvesting of branches for the cut flower industry and garden collection has not significantly threatened wild populations, which remain widespread throughout suitable habitat in New South Wales.
