黑鸟

Thankfully that has changed and a summer visit to Matsu offers the opportunity of seeing one of the world's rarest birds, the Chinese Crested Tern Sterna bernsteini .

幸亏这些都已经改变，而马祖的夏季观光也提供了观赏世界上最少见鸟种之一–黑嘴端凤头燕鸥，的绝佳机会。

Compare: black emerging in back; all black ear coverts;(we cannot compare tertial spur as this bird's tertials are juvenile); supercilium not reaching nostril (with black feathering between yellow supercilium and nostril); black "bend of wing"(lesser/median coverts); longer and more pointed primaries (with a greater number of primaries projecting beyond the tertials); some orange emerging in the throat.

比较： 全黑的耳羽；(我们不能比较三级飞羽的&白刺&，因为这只的三级飞羽是幼鸟羽色)；眉线没有到达鼻孔(黄色的眉线和鼻孔间有黑色羽毛)；黑色的翼前缘；较长且尖的初级飞羽(且有较多数目的初级飞羽突出超过三级飞羽)；一些橘色出现在喉部。

The reserve's species list is long, but mine is grimly short, though I did see a magnificent male silver pheasant, 40 inches from bill to tail, crossing the forest track. And I heard a troupe of that rarest of mammals, the Hainan black-crested gibbon, hooting away high up along the mountain ridges.

存活的鸟种的名单很长，但是我自己列出的名单却出奇地短，尽管我见过从嘴到尾巴总共是40英尺长的华贵的雄白鹇穿过森林，我也听到过许多最稀罕的哺乳动物的声音，海南的黑顶长臂猿，在山脊上空吼叫，但是我的热情仍然在这片开放的海岸：潮间的平地，盐沼和红树林沼泽。

Black-tailed gulls leave the island when the fledglings can fly and look for food by themselves.

待幼鸟能够独立活动和觅食以后，黑尾鸥在七月中下旬离岛。

Black-tailed gulls begin to countership and roost on the island ;in April they start to mate and build their nests. The peak period of laying eggs is from late April to early May, and then the parent birds begin to hatch.

三月份黑尾鸥开始求偶并在岛上栖息，四月份开始交配、筑巢，四月下旬到五月初为产卵高峰，随即成鸟开始孵化。

II I was of three minds, Like a tree In which there are three blackbirds.

II 我有三颗心，像一棵树上面有三只黑鹂鸟。

For example, birds called European blackcaps sharing breeding grounds in southern Germany and Austria are going their own ways--literally and figuratively.

例如，称作欧洲黑顶莺的鸟在德国和奥地利有繁殖地，它们正在各自走向自己的路——这不仅仅是比喻。

So Dr Schaefer conducted an experiment using 11 captive female blackcaps. For four days, the birds were given a choice between two cups of food that were identical except that the food in one was blue in colour because it contained anthocyanins.

所以医生schaefer 用11个笼中的黑顶莺进行了一项试验。4天里，鸟们需要在两个杯子的食物之间作出选择，这两个杯子中只有蓝颜色的食物不相同，因为它包含了花色素苷。

C 17/4/09 at around 08:00, another House Crow flying with a lump of food in the bill, towards northeast.

18/4/09 早上 7 时半，一对黑领椋鸟和一只乌鸦打架，但不肯定是否家鸦。

The one blacker-looking secondary lacks a white tip, so the inners juvenile.

这看起来较黑的次级飞羽没有白色的羽尖，所以内侧为幼鸟的羽色。

But we don't care about Battlegrounds.

但我们并不在乎沙场中的显露。

Ah! don't mention it, the butcher's shop is a horror.

啊！不用提了。提到肉，真是糟透了。
