Namaqua sandgrouse(納馬夸沙雞) [ 2007-06-08 14:44 ]
在非洲卡拉哈里沙漠,由于雨量稀少,所有的動(dòng)物自出生就要面臨干燥的無情考驗(yàn)。由于納馬夸公沙雞胸部的羽毛吸水性非常強(qiáng),為孩子尋水的責(zé)任就自然而然落到了它們“胸”上——公沙雞每天都會(huì)到湖邊把羽毛在水里浸濕后再飛回家,以此滿足小沙雞對(duì)水的渴求。
Sandgrouse(沙雞): A father Namaqua sand grouse of Africa's
Kalahari Desert flies as far as 50 miles a day in order to soak himself in water
and return to his nest, where his chicks can drink from his
feathers!
