Blue-footed boobies:
It is a seabird belonging to the gannets family, which includes ten species of long-winged representatives. They are very trusting, not afraid of people and easily make contact with them. The body length of blue-footed boobies is on average 75-85 cm, the wingspan can reach 1.5 m. The weight of birds is relatively small - about 1.5-3.5 kg, and the females are usually more massive and larger. The most striking and main distinguishing feature of this species is the extraordinary color of the legs, which ranges from light turquoise to deep aquamarine.
Guldova amadina:
It is a bird of the finch weaver family. Gould finches are common in the north of the Australian continent up to the 19th degree of latitude. Only Cape York Peninsula overgrown with humid jungle is not inhabited by them. Gould finches are very colorful birds whose head plumage can vary greatly. In the wild, there are black, red and yellow-headed variants.
Big Lyre Bird:
Or the common lyrebail is a songbird that lives in eastern Australia and Tasmania. The great lyre bird lives in temperate and subtropical rain forests. Many large lyre birds live in Dandenong National Park and Kinglake National Park in the suburbs of Melbourne. Lyrebirds are well known for the striking beauty of their enormous tail in the male, which can be admired as they unfold their tail for display or courting.
Small bird of paradise:
A species of passerine birds from the family of birds of paradise. The bird lives in forests in the north of New Guinea, as well as on the nearby small islands of Misool and Yapen. The bird can reach 32 cm in length. Males are brighter and have a wider tail, while females are smaller and brown in color. These birds live alone and rarely in pairs.
Mandarin duck:
This is a small duck weighing 400-700 g. A pair of mandarin duck, called in Chinese "yuanyan", where "yuan" is a male, and "yang" is a female mandarin duck, symbolizes a couple for life, is a symbol of loyalty. Because of this, they are often depicted in art.
Spectacled eider:
This is a rare species of birds from the duck family. These birds nest on the sea coasts of northeastern Siberia and Alaska, as well as on St. Lawrence Island. In winter, when the water is covered with ice, Russian spectacled eiders fly to the south, where there are non-freezing areas of the Bering Sea. It is a rather large duck with a large head and massive build. The length of her body is from 51 to 58 cm with a weight of about 1 kg 600 g. The spectacled eider drake in breeding plumage is quite easy to distinguish from other species of northern ducks by its well-developed pattern on the head: there are large swollen spots around the eyes, the so-called. "Glasses" with a diameter of up to 3 cm.
Hatchet:
The hatchet, or the toporik, is a seabird of the genus puffins of the family of auks. They inhabit the Asian and American coasts of the North Pacific Ocean (including Kamchatka, the Kuriles and the coast of the Sea of Okhotsk), in the south in winter to California and Japan. In honor of the bird, Toporkovy Island from the Great Ridge of the Kuril Islands and Toporkov Island from the Commander Islands group are named.
