ʻO ka manu keʻokeʻo hau me kahi poʻo ʻeleʻele kahi ʻano hoihoi o ka ʻAkau ʻĀkau a me ʻAmelika Hema: ʻo ka nuku ʻAmelika wale nō ke kikonia i koho i kēia mau ʻāina ʻelua no nā wahi noho.
Ka wehewehe ʻana o ka nuku ʻAmelika
E like me ka nui o nā manu o ka ʻohana stork, monogamous nā nuku ʻAmelika, makemake i ka ipo no ke ola.... ʻAʻole nui loa, nīnū he ʻano ʻē.
Helehelena
He 2,5 - 2.7 kg ke kaupaona, piʻi kēia mau manu i 1.15 m ke kiʻekiʻe. I ka manawa like, hiki i ko lākou kino a hiki i 60 - 70 cm, a me ko lākou mau ʻēheu a hiki i 175 cm.ʻaneʻane keʻokeʻo nā plumage āpau o ka nuku ʻAmelika, ʻeleʻele ka hulu, ʻoluʻolu i ka hoʻopā, pili paʻa i ke kino Nā kiko ʻeleʻele - ka huelo, ke poʻo a me ka "ʻaoʻao hewa" o nā ʻeheu. ʻIke maopopo ʻia nā hulu ʻeleʻele o ka nuku i ka wā o ka lele ʻana o kēia manu hanohano. ʻAʻole uhi paʻa ʻia ke poʻo me ka plumage; he mau ʻōhule ko nā manu makua.
Hoihoi ia! ʻUlaʻula ʻulaʻula nā wāwae lōʻihi i ka hina.
Kaulana ka nuku, mahalo i ka inoa o ka manu: lōʻihi, mānoanoa a ʻeleʻele i ke kumu, a i ka hope e piʻo i lalo, e ʻulaʻula ke kala ʻeleʻele i melemele. ʻOi aku ka lōʻihi o ka nuku ma mua o 20 cm, hoʻohana maʻalahi ka nuku i kāna "mea kani". Akā ma ka honua, manu ʻē, ikaika a dexterous a nani hoʻi ke nānā aku i kahi ʻano ʻē ma muli o kā lākou nui kaulike ʻole, me he mea lā e huki iki ka nuku i kahi poʻo liʻiliʻi i lalo, kūlou i ka honua.
Hana, nohona nohona
Noho nā kolone o kēia mau manu ma kapa o ka muliwai, i nā poho wai, ma kahakai, i ka mangrove. ʻAʻole wale ka wai papau, akā, ʻo nā wahi hū hoʻi o ka ʻāina, nā kahawai me ka paʻakai a i ʻole ka wai hou e hoʻohuli i nā nuku.
Piʻi kēia peʻa i ka lani, e hopu ana i nā ʻenekini, hiki ke piʻi i kahi kiʻekiʻe o 300 mika. I kekahi manawa wale nō e pīpī nei i ko lākou mau ʻeheu, lele lele nā nuku me ka mālie, e kī ana i ko lākou mau wāwae i hope. ʻAneʻane hiki ʻole ke hālāwai me nā manu mehameha, lele pinepine lākou i nā pālua a i ʻole nā hipa, e lanakila ana i 60 km e ʻimi ai i ka meaʻai. Hoʻāʻo lākou e noho i nā holoholona - nā kolone, ʻaʻole mamao loa mai nā wahi manu ʻē aʻe.
Alakaʻi lākou i kahi nohona o ke ao, akā hiki iā lākou ke hele i ka ʻimi pō, keu hoʻi inā kokoke ke kahakai, kahi e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke pāʻina nui i ka wā kai.
Nani loa nā nuku i ka lewa, akā ʻoi aku ka hoihoi o kā lākou lawe ʻana a me nā pae ʻana.... I kēia manawa, hiki iā lākou ke hōʻike i nā hana he nui, ke pae ʻana me ka huli ʻoi loa, a i ʻole ke hele hohonu ʻana i ka wai.
ʻAʻole makaʻu nā nuku i ka poʻe a hele pū kokoke me lākou inā lawa ka meaʻai ma kahi kokoke. I kekahi manawa hoʻolako lākou i ko lākou pūnana ma kahi kokoke o nā hale o nā kānaka a i ʻole nā wahi hoʻomaha o lākou, ma ke kiʻekiʻe o 10 a 30 mau mika.
Wā ola
I ka pio ʻana, hiki i nā nuku ʻAmelika ke ola a 25 mau makahiki inā kokoke ke kūlana i kahi kūpono. I ko lākou kūlohelohe, e like me ka poʻe noiʻi, ʻaʻole ola iki kēia mau manu a 15 mau makahiki. A laila lilo ka leʻaleʻa o ka neʻe ʻana, ka acuteness o nā manaʻo i nalowale, a he mea maʻalahi kēia i nā mea ʻaihue.
Kahi noho, nā wahi noho
Noho nā nuku ʻAmelika i nā wahi tropical a subtropical o ʻAkau ʻĀkau a me ʻAmelika Hema, hiki ke ʻike ʻia lākou i ka Caribbean. Mai ka ʻākau, kaupalena ʻia ka pae i nā wahi hānau i nā mokuʻāina ʻo Florida, Georgia, a me South Carolina. Nā palena hema - Northern Argentina. Ke nalo ka mālama o nā keiki, hiki i nā manu ke hoʻonohonoho i ko lākou wahi noho ma Texas, Misisipi, ʻike ʻia lākou ma Alabama a hiki i North Carolina.
Noho nā nuku ʻAmelika i nā aniau tropical a subtropical
E hanai ana i ka nuku ʻAmelika
ʻO ke kaupaona ʻana a hiki i ka 2.6 kg, hiki i ka nuku ke ʻai a hiki i ka 500 gram o ka iʻa a me nā holoholona wai ʻē aʻe i kēlā me kēia lā. ʻAʻole wale ka iʻa, akā, ʻo nā moʻo, nā rana, nā kolo, e lilo maʻalahi i manu manu dexterous.
Loaʻa ka hau, hiki i ka nuku ke kū no nā hola i loko o ka wai, e waiho ana i ka nuku hāmama i loko o ka wai. ʻO nā wāwae lōʻihi e ʻae iā ʻoe e paʻa i ka hohonu o ka hapalua mika. Manu ʻino nā maka o ka manu, akā maikaʻi ke ʻano o ka hoʻopā. "Lohe" nei e lana ana ka meaʻai kūpono ma kahi kokoke, pā ka nuku i ka uila, e lālau ana a moni i nā mea ola i loaʻa iā ia. I ka wai mālie, ʻaʻole pono ʻo ia e hoʻopā i kahi iʻa a i nā rana paha ma kāna "mea hana".
Hoihoi ia! ʻO ka nuku o kēia lunamakaʻāinana o ke kaʻina o nā stiger i manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia ka wikiwiki loa i ka honua, he ʻumi tausani kekona o ka sekona e hopu i ka mea pio.
Hiki i ka "ʻAmelika" ke ʻai a 12 mau manawa i ka lā, maikaʻi loa kona makemake. ʻO ka pono e ola i waena o nā mea hoʻokūkū he nui i koi aku i kēia manu e hoʻomaʻa i ka ʻimi holoholona ʻana i ka pō, no ka mea hoʻonui kēia i nā manawa o ka lawaiʻa ʻana me ka maluhia o nā manawa he nui.
Hoʻohua a me nā keiki
ʻO nā kaao o ke kūpaʻa i ka ʻohana ʻike i kā lākou hōʻoia - hana pinepine ʻia nā kāne a me ke ola. I ka moekolohe ʻana i ka makahiki 4, nānā ke kāne no kahi no ka pūnana, kahi āna i lure ai i ka "hapa ʻē aʻe" me nā kani ʻano ʻē. Mai Kēkēmapa a ʻApelila, mau ka manawa pūnana, kahi e pono ai ka manawa e noho a hānai i nā pēpē, kau iā lākou ma ka ʻēheu.
ʻO ka maʻamau koho ʻia ka wahi no ka pūnana i nā lālā o nā lāʻau e kū kokoke ana i ka wai a i ʻole iā ia, i ka wilou... A laila hoʻomaka ka hana, hoʻohana i nā lālā maloʻo, ka mauʻu, nā lāʻau i hoʻopili paʻa ʻia me nā greens. ʻIke ʻia kahi pūnana o kekahi mau lua i ke kaiāulu, a laila kekahi. Ma hoʻokahi "pūnaewele" i kekahi manawa kūpono 10 - 15 nā pūnana. E hoʻi pinepine ana nā kāne ma aneʻi, i loko o kekahi mau makahiki, e hāʻawi i ke ola i kekahi hanauna hou.
ʻO ka koho o ka wahine i ka wā e hiki mai ana no ka wahine. Inā makemake ʻo ia i ka wahi a me ka makuakāne o ka ʻohana ponoʻī, iho ʻo ia i lalo ma hope ona, a hoʻomaka ka hana o ke kamaʻāina. Ke hāpai nei i ko lākou nuku, ke aʻo nei nā kikala i kekahi i kekahi, nānā pono, kamaʻilio. Mālama ke kāne i ka wahine hoʻopā loa.
Hoʻomoe ka wahine i ʻehā mau hua liʻiliʻi o ke kala beige māmā, e puka ana kēlā me kēia i hoʻokahi lā a ʻelua paha ma hope o ka mea ma mua. A hatch nā mākuahine a me nā makuakāne iā lāua, e hoʻololi nei kekahi i kekahi no hoʻokahi mahina. A laila hānau ʻia nā pēpē kōkua ʻole loa. No nā mākua, he manawa nui loa kēia, no ka mea pono lākou e hānai ʻia kokoke i ka uaki. Pono nā pēpē e kanu i ka meaʻai i loko o ko lākou waha, pono i kēlā me kēia e lawe iā 15 a ʻoi mau manawa i ka lā.
Hoihoi ia! I nā lā wela, lawe mai nā mākua i ka wai i ko lākou nuku, a hoʻoinu lākou i nā moa e hoʻemi iki i ka mahana.
Me ka hemahema o ka meaʻai, ʻo nā moa ikaika wale nō, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi i ke ola, hiki ke hoʻokuke i nā kaikunāne mai ka nuku o nā mākua I ʻelua mau mahina wale nō ma hope, holo piha nā moa a hoʻomaka e aʻo e lele.
