Nā hiʻohiʻona a me nā wahi noho o ka sunbird
Nectar – manu, ʻo ia ka pili pili o ka manu liʻiliʻi, a pili i ke ʻano eponymous o passerines. Loaʻa iā ia ka lōʻihi o 9 a 25 cm. ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona hiʻohiʻona o kona helehelena ke ʻano o kona ʻūlū, kihi a lahilahi, nīnū me nā kihi i ulana ʻia.
Hoʻokaʻawale ʻia nā ʻano manu e nā ʻepekema i 116 mau ʻano. Hiki ke ʻokoʻa ke kala o ko lākou kino, a pili wale i ka ʻano, akā i ka moekolohe o ke kanaka, a me ka wahi e noho ai. ʻO nā lunamakaʻālohilohi loa o kēia mau manu, ma ke ʻano he kūlana, loaʻa i nā ākea ākea.
ʻO ka hapa nui o lākou (e like me kāu e ʻike ai kiʻi o sunbirds) he kino i uhi ʻia me nā hulu ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻōlinolino. I ka hohonu o nā ululāʻau, ma waena o nā lālā a me nā lau, hūnā kēlā kanaka kēia kanaka, ʻano e nā leo hinuhinu o ka plumage, pili ʻole lākou a ʻokoʻa i nā kala ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻōmaʻomaʻo.
ʻOi aku ka mālamalama o nā kāne o kekahi ʻano o kēia mau manu ma mua o kā lākou ipo wahine, a kū aʻe nā hulu o nā kāne me ka sheen metallic. Hoʻohālikelike pinepine ʻia ia mau manu i nā hummingbirds, kahi a lākou e like ai, ʻelua i ka nānā aku: ka nui, ka hinuhinu o ka metala i ka plumage, ke ʻano o ke alelo a me ka nuku, a me ka nohona.
ʻAʻole like me kēia poʻe noho o ka Honua Hou, noho nā nectarians ma Hema Hema, Indonesia, ʻApelika a me ʻAukekulia ʻAkau, e noho ana i nā māla pua a me nā ululāʻau. I kekahi manawa kau ka manu i nā wahi mauna.
Noho ʻo Nectarians e noho ana i kekahi mau panalāʻau, e laʻa me Malaysia, hiki ke noho kokoke i nā kānaka i kekahi manawa hoʻonohonoho lākou i ko lākou mau pūnana ma nā verandas, nā balconies a me nā alaloa o nā hale kanaka. ʻO kekahi o nā lāhui kaulana loa i ʻike ʻia ma ʻApelika sunbird malachite... He manu nani loa kēia.
I loko o ke kiʻi he sunbird malachite
Hoʻonani nā kāne i kā lākou ipo wahine me nā kala ʻōlinolino ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻōmaʻomaʻo, keu hoʻi i ka wā o ka moena, a ʻelua mau hulu huelo lōʻihi lōʻihi. He kala ʻoliva ʻeleʻele ko nā wahine ma luna, kū i luna mai lalo me nā pua hinahina-melemele.
Ke ʻano a me ka nohona o ka sunbird
Ma hea e loaʻa ai kahi sunbird maʻalahi? I loko o nā ululāʻau ulu lāʻau a me nā kalaunu o nā kumulāʻau, kahi e ʻohiʻohi ai lākou i nā mea kolo mai ka ʻili a me nā lau. Ma kahi hoʻokahi e inu lākou i ka nectar o nā mea kanu ala mai nā lālā. Ke kau nei i luna o nā pua, hoʻouka lākou i ko lākou nuku, nuku loloa i loko o lākou e inu ai i kēia makana akua o ke ʻano.
ʻAʻole makemake nā Nectarians e huakaʻi, ʻoiai ke hala nei i ko lākou mau lā e kūʻē i ke kāʻei kua o nā ʻāina i kamaʻāina, i nā manawa pālua, akā i kekahi manawa e ʻākoakoa nei i nā ʻohana hipa liʻiliʻi. ʻAʻole makemake nā manu e haʻalele i ko lākou mau home. Ke ʻimi nei kēlā poʻe ʻōpio e ʻike i kahi ʻāina kūpono e noho ai.
A i ʻole nā ʻano o kēia mau manu, e noho ana i nā wahi me ke aniau ʻino, i nā wā anuanu e hoʻāʻo e neʻe i nā wahi mehana a me nā meaʻai hou aku, akā ʻaʻole maʻamau e neʻe ma kahi mamao.
Hoʻopili kēia i ka sunbird Palestinian, kahi o kahi ʻano, ʻokoʻa i ka ʻaoʻao hema, noho i nā wahi ʻākau ʻē aʻe. Pākuʻi ʻia kēia: nā panalāʻau mai Lebanona a me Israel a i nā ʻaoʻao hema o Siberia. ʻO ka manawa pinepine kipa kēia mau manu i nā mea hānai a me nā mea inu i ka hoʻoilo, i kūkulu pono ʻia na lākou e nā poʻe.
Mālama pinepine ʻia kēia mau manu ʻono i ka pio. ʻO kahi hale manu i kanu ʻia me nā mea kanu pua e kūpono loa no ia mau kumu. I loko o ia mea, pono nā mea aloha manu e hoʻouka i kahi ipu me ka wai no ka ʻauʻau ʻana i nā holoholona a me kahi ipu inu kaʻawale kūpono me ka wai maʻemaʻe, no ka mea, kumu ka lepo i nā maʻi fungal koʻikoʻi i nā sunbirds.
I ke kiʻi, ʻo ka manu ka nectary Palestinian
Hāʻawi ʻia he thermophilic kēia mau mea, i nā wahi me ke aniau ʻino, pono lākou i kahi lumi kūikawā me ka hoʻomehana, a me nā kukui ʻē aʻe i mau ai ko lākou mau lā lā i hana ʻia ma kahi o 12 mau lā i ka lā.
Hanai Sunbird
Kona inoa sunbird i loaʻa no ka mea ʻo kāna mea momona punahele ka nectar o nā mea kanu a me nā pua ʻaʻala, a nā manu e hoʻomana ai e inu ai, pinepine i ka lele ʻana mai nā pua, a i kekahi manawa, e noho ana ma nā lālā. Hānai ʻia lākou i kēia ala e kahi ʻano kumu, kahi nuku lahilahi a meli i kūpono i loko o nā kīʻaha pua, a me kahi alelo, ʻiki a lōʻihi hoʻi me ke uka a me ka lihi ma ka hopena.
I ka ʻimi ʻana i ka hānai ʻana, hana pinepine lākou i nā neʻe kau, e lawe mai ana i nā pōmaikaʻi he nui ʻole, ke kōkua lākou i ka pollination o nā mea ulu like ʻole. ʻAʻole hoʻowahāwahā nā nectaries i ka ʻiʻo o nā mea kolo like ʻole, i hopu mau ʻia i ka lele ʻana, a me nā nananana, nona nā ʻāpala i lawa mau i waena o nā mea ulu nunui.
ʻOi aku i kēia ʻano hānai, ʻokoʻa nā ʻano ʻĀsia o kēia mau manu, makemake i ka meaʻai holoholona i nā mea kanu, nā mea e paʻakikī ai ka hānai ʻana a mālama i ka pio. Akā me kēlā mau holoholona ʻoluʻolu me ka nectar o nā pua, pono ʻoe e akahele loa, e akahele, no ka mea ʻo kēia huahana i loko o kahi ʻano ʻawaʻawa pinepine ka huhū o ka ʻōpū i nā manu.
ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi e hānai i nā sunbirds me nā crickets ʻōpio, nā biscuits i pulu ʻia i ka nectar, a me nā meaʻai grainy kūikawā i hoʻolālā ʻia no nā insectivores ʻAʻole hōʻole nā manu i ka wai momona momona, a hoʻomana wale lākou i nā lā.
ʻO ka hana hou ʻana a me ke ola o ka sunbird
ʻO ka monogamy ke ʻano o kēia mau manu, a me nā pālua, ke ʻano o ke ola, noho i ko lākou ʻāina ponoʻī a ma kahi o 4 hectares ka nui. Hiki i kekahi mau kāne male ma hoʻokahi kilomika kilomika i ka manawa hoʻokahi, hilinaʻi ka nui o nā ʻohana i ka nui o nā meaʻai a me nā mea kanu pua i kahi o ka noho.
ʻO ka manawa pinepine, koho nā wahine wahine kāne make i nā kāne hou na lākou iho mai nā kāne manuahi i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i nā ʻohana hipa liʻiliʻi. Manu manu sunbird hana ʻia nā pūnana i nā cobwebs, limu, nā ʻōiwi lahilahi a me nā lau, e hoʻoulu i nā mea kanu, hoʻokomo ʻia iā lākou ma nā lālā o nā kumulāʻau a me nā kumu lāʻau i ke kiʻekiʻe ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku i ʻekolu mau mika.
ʻO ka lalo o ka pūnana, i kūkulu ʻia i loko o kahi manawa pōkole a hoʻohana pinepine ʻia i loko o kona ola, ua hoʻopili mau ʻia me ka hulu hipa a me nā ʻāpana pepa. ʻO nā ʻano o ia ʻano ʻano like i ka nānā ʻana i nā wallets kau. I loko o kahi paʻa o nā sunbirds, he maʻa mau mai ka 1 a i ka 3 mau hua, i hoʻoulu ʻia e nā makuahine hoʻomanawanui no ʻelua pule.
I ke kiʻi, ka pūnana o ka sunbird
I kēia wā, hānai pono ke kāne i ka wahine. Lawe pū kekahi i ʻelua mau pule no ka hoʻomohala ʻana i nā moa, hānau ʻia na kuli, makapō a ʻōlohelohe, hānai ʻia e ko lākou mau mākua me ka nectar, a ma hope o ka plumage ka nui o ke kanaka makua, ʻo ka lōʻihi o ko lākou nuku he pōkole iki ia. Mai ka ʻeiwa mau makahiki, hoʻomaka nā keiki o ka sunbird e ʻai i nā mea kolo i lawe ʻia mai e ko lākou mau mākua.
A ma hope o hoʻokahi pule a ʻelua paha, ʻike lākou i ka nectar iā lākou iho. Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole mālama nā keiki āpau i ke ola, a ma waho o 100 mau hua i kau ʻia, ma kahi o 47 mau moa e ulu a lilo i poʻe mākua, a ʻo ko lākou mau hoahānau a me ko lākou mau kaikuahine, i ka manawa pinepine, lilo i nā mea kolo: nā mea kolo a me nā rodents. ʻO ka lōʻihi o ke ola o kēia mau manu ma mua o 8-9 mau makahiki.
