PPeacocks are widely known for their striking appearance, especially in males.

Male peacocks are characterized by their long ornamental tail feathers, called a "train," which display iridescent, eye-like patterns known as "ocelli." They also have bright blue and green plumage, a fanshaped crest, and white patches around the eyes. In contrast, female peacocks, or peahens, have dull brown and green feathers, a smaller crest, and lack the long ornamental train of the males.

Peacocks live in many habitats such as lowland forests, deciduous forests, and both tropical and dry areas. They are also found around farms, agricultural fields, cities, and parks. Peacocks feed on plants, seeds, and insects. While they may sometimes damage crops, they also help farmers by eating pests like locusts and grasshoppers

Predicate

The Javanese eagle is classified as a bird of prey, which indicates its role as a bioindicator. For scientists, a bioindicator is an important sign of the health condition of an ecosystem. As a predator, the Javanese eagle contributes to maintaining biodiversity and supporting the resilience of its habitat.

Myth

The Javanese eagle is a bird of prey and an ecological bioindicator. Its proud appearance and long crest make it closely associated with Garuda, a mythical bird in Indonesian culture described as the mount of Lord Vishnu. Since the 10th century, Garuda has been a cultural symbol, and in 1950 President Soekarno introduced it as Indonesia’s national emblem.

Conservation

Cockatoos live in Australia, New Guinea, Indonesia, Solomon Islands, and the Philippines. They utilize rainforest, scrublands, eucalyptus grove, forest, mangrove, and open country.

Crest feathers are used to communicate, too, as the bird changes their position according to mood. Raised feathers indicate an alert, excited, or agitated state. When the bird is moving or feeling subordinate, it presses its feathers close to the skin.

Celepuk Siau

The Siau Owl (Otus siaoensis) is a rare species of owl found only on Siau Island, located in Sangihe Regency, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. This owl is critically endangered due to its limited habitat and threats from human activities, such as deforestation and land conversion.

Protecting its forest habitat is essential to prevent the extinction of this unique bird.
