加羅林夜鷹

The Chuck-will's-widow (Antrostomus carolinensis) is the largest nightjar in North America, named for its distinctive far-carrying call — a resonant four-syllable whistle repeated persistently on warm nights. It breeds across the southeastern United States, from the Atlantic coastal plain through the Gulf states and up the Mississippi Valley to southern Indiana and Kansas. The species migrates southward in autumn to winter quarters in the Caribbean, Central America, and northern South America. Like all nightjars, it is a crepuscular and nocturnal insectivore, capturing large moths, beetles, and other flying insects in flight using its enormous, bristle-fringed gape. By day, the Chuck-will's-widow roosts on the ground or along horizontal branches, relying on cryptic mottled plumage for concealment. It nests directly on the leaf litter of open woodland and scrub, typically in pine-oak forests, dry forests, and woodland edges. The IUCN classifies this species as Least Concern, though Breeding Bird Survey data suggest moderate long-term population declines linked to forest fragmentation and light pollution that disrupts insect prey availability. Conservation of large-scale woodland tracts in the southeastern United States benefits this species and its associated nightjar community.

費氏情侶鸚鵡

费氏牡丹鹦鹉（Agapornis fischeri）是一种原产于坦桑尼亚和肯尼亚维多利亚湖周边稀树草原林地和林缘的小型艳丽鹦鹉，体羽绿色，头部和喉部呈鲜亮橙色，喙呈红色。它们建立牢固的配对关系，不断为对方梳理羽毛——这一行为正是牡丹鹦鹉名称的由来。由于大量被捕供全球宠物贸易，被列为近危。圈养条件下已培育出多种色彩变异品系。
