Bird #93 - Regent honeyeater (CR)

In the wild, regent honeyeaters are so rare that young birds are struggling to learn the song of their own species; the complexity of their song has decreased across generations, and some honeyeaters now sing the calls of other birds. This gradual loss of identity could impact their ability to find a mate.

オオバン / Eurasian Coot 

初めてオオバンを見た時、

こんなオシャレな鳥が身近にいるんだと感動しました。

オオバンの足を見て、さらにビックリ。

コロンとしたボディ、おしゃれな額板、奇妙な足、そしてニンマリ笑ってるような表情もたまりません☺️

When I first saw a Eurasian coot, I was amazed to discover such a stylish bird living nearby. And its feet surprised me even more!
