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。

Coast Trillium

Coast trillium (Trillium ovatum) is a spring-flowering perennial herb in the family Melanthiaceae, native to moist, shaded forests of western North America from British Columbia and Alberta south through the Pacific states to central California and east to Montana and Idaho. It grows in mixed conifer and deciduous forest understories, redwood forest, riparian woodland, and coastal range foothills, typically in deep, humus-rich, well-drained soils. Like all trilliums, it produces a whorl of three broad leaves, a single three-petalled flower that opens white and turns pink to deep rose with age, and takes many years to reach flowering maturity from seed. Seeds are dispersed by ants (myrmecochory) attracted to the oil-rich elaiosome attached to each seed. Coast trillium is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, though it is a legally protected plant in some US states due to its slow reproductive rate making populations sensitive to disturbance. Illegal collection from the wild for horticulture remains a concern. It is one of the most beloved wildflowers of the Pacific Northwest and is widely cultivated in woodland gardens.
