The blue bush jay Aphelocoma coerulescens is a bird of the Vranov family, endemic to Florida, USA.
It is a small bird with a body length of 24-28 cm and a weight of 65-90 g. The nape, upper wing coverts and tail are bright blue. The back, underside and forehead are grey.
The range of the blue jay is limited to areas of Florida overgrown with bushes. The preferred living space is characterized by droughts and frequent fires. In this environment grows a small assortment of specific plants (sand pine, ceratiola, oak), the fruits of which, in addition to tree frogs, snakes, insects, turtles, lizards and young mice, make up the main diet of these birds.
The population of the species decreased in the XX century due to the destruction of living space by about 90% and is considered endangered. Populations of the west coast of Florida are being observed and studied point-by-point. To do this, the animals are ringed in different colors so that they can be identified by looking through binoculars
Despite its short legs, the wombat can reach speeds of up to 40 km/h.

The great hornbill Buceros bicornis (kalao), is one of the larger members of the hornbill family, whose body length reaches 1.5 m.
Having an impressive size and colorful plumage, this bird is part of the rituals of the peoples living in its area. In captivity, the kalao can live up to the age of fifty.
The range of kalao stretches from Western India to the east to Thailand, and south through the Malacca Peninsula to the island of Sumatra inclusive. Kalao live in the treetops of tropical jungles. The favorite places of these birds are the tops of evergreen trees, where they find enough food all year round.
In search of food, a kalao flies between the trees. It is often possible to observe how these birds fly in pairs or in small flocks over the forest. Kalao keep in touch with each other with the help of loud sounds - a rolling roar and cackling. In flight, the kalao resembles a vulture with its rounded wings.
