Ptica meseca

Ja to je pa res, jaz še vedno na vse gledam kot na ljubljenčke

in mimogrede, med iskanjem strnadov sem našla še eno simpatično stvarco [img] [/img]

ta simpatična stvarca je rjavkasti očalar (Zosterops erythropleura) in je mehkokljun -žuškojed.Živi v aziji prehranjuje se predvsem z nektajem - medičino.Zelo mu teknejo listne uši in njim po velikosti velike žuželke.Ptiček je zelo majhen le 12cm še manjši od njega je indijski očalar

živi dokaz, da je bila mati narava res ustvarjalna je tak, kot da bi ga kdo narisal

Peter Geggie!

Lepo, da se trudiš in res hvala za tvoj prispevek

ampak, iskreno povedano: ta google translator tako grdo prevaja, da te bomo vsi bolje razumeli, če pišeš kar v angleščini

Sorry about the translation metka. The bird in the photo is a oriental white eye zosterops palpebrosus that is found from India to China and down to indonesia 13 subspecies .They feed on soft fruit, insects and nectar, In the 1970s and 80s large numbers where imported in to europe and sold for 15 to 20 euro a pair. At that time breeding them was not a priority. After India banned the export of birds some breeders where having good results but it was too little too late then the EU banned the import of wild birds.Thay now sell for about 200 eu a pair. When i lived in England i bread 4 species of zosterop including z. palpebrosa from China and z,melanura from Java. Zosterops erythropleura is the larger chestnut flanked white eye from China.

Thank You Peter
