I was blown away by the longing for the live broadcast of the sea

Chapter 708 Is this stupid bird a raptor?
In the picture in Lin Yang's live broadcast room, the reindeer mother and her child followed the migrating deer from the north to the south of Iceland, looking for a warmer habitat and more abundant food sources.

The cute little reindeer trotted all the way to follow the migrating large troop for fear of falling behind, and the adult reindeer were also observing the situation of the babies all the time, for fear that one inadvertently lost two baby reindeer. Not good.

As the herd of reindeer drifted away, the water friends in the live broadcast room described it with a lot of emotion.

"Goodbye! Mother reindeer and baby reindeer! Please live well!"

"The baby reindeer is so cute, where can I adopt two? Although there is no family member, I want to have a baby reindeer."

"Not to mention that this thing is in Iceland, it should be regarded as a protected animal all over the world, brother, don't even think about it!"

Lin Yang and Yue'er looked at the barrage of water friends, of course they also knew that the sand sculpture netizens were just joking, and no one would really want to raise reindeer.

After all, they belong to nature.

Migrating and giving birth to offspring in the vast world, branches and leaves spread out, just like the towering antlers on their heads, the more they are divided, the more dense they become.

At the same time, in the footage of the live broadcast room, a white flying shadow across the sky instantly attracted the strong curiosity of the water friends!
Yue'er also noticed the white shadow flying in the sky.

"Look, brother Yang! What is that? A white bird? The whole body is white, so beautiful!"

however.

When Lin Yang zoomed in on the camera in the live broadcast room, the audience suddenly discovered that the bird flying in the sky seemed to have no head, which looked extremely weird.

"Fuck! Is this a headless bird? You only see the wings but not the head?"

"It should be because of the angle. The whole body is white and looks very beautiful. The anchor will not discover a new species, right?"

"The headless bird sounds very weird, like an animal that is only described in the Book of Mountains and Seas!"

"Come on, it's because of the angle, and the two heads should be round, so it looks like there is no head from a distance."

In the footage of the live broadcast room, the white bird that appeared was about 70 centimeters in length. With its wings spread, its whole body was snow white.

It is perfect and the ice and snow tundra, if it can be integrated!
But soaring above the blue sky forms a big difference from the blue sky.

After Lin Yang photographed the white bird soaring in the sky with the camera, the system immediately gave the basic information of this species!

[Congratulations to the host for making a new discovery!Name: Snowy Owl!Attributes: Chordate Phylum, Modern Birds, Owl Shapes!Distribution range: In the Arctic and Siberia, the overwintering form can be found in some parts of the northern part of the Dragon Kingdom, which is relatively rare. 】

In fact, even without systematic reminders and feedback, Lin Yang can recognize at a glance that the animal flying in the sky that appears in the camera is the white owl Snowy Owl.

Snowy owls are known as snow hawks and white owls.

Because many individuals are predominantly white with occasional dark brown spots covering the wings.

The round head, because of the difference in angle, makes the water friends in the live broadcast room look at it from a distance, like a bird without a head flying in the sky!
The appearance of the snowy owl suddenly aroused the very strong curiosity of the water friends in the live broadcast room!

Lin Yang patiently explained to the water friends: "This should be a snowy owl that lives in the cold northern regions. They prefer to inhabit the tundra in the Arctic, as well as Taiyuan hills and coastal wastelands, and even swamps."

Snowy owls have a very wide distribution range, and their activities can be seen in the northern tundra forests, plains, wilderness, and coniferous forests.

"White owl? Shouldn't owls come out to hunt at night? Why is it wandering around in broad daylight?"

"Couldn't this be a street trickster among the white owls?"

"I read an animal science magazine before. It seems that this white snowy owl is a bird that can come out to forage during the day and night!"

"It looks kind of dumb, not very smart!"

As Lin Yang's camera zoomed in, the water friends in the live broadcast room could clearly see the more detailed appearance of the white snowy owl found in the camera.

In fact, it does have a brain!

It's just that the head is round and round, and it looks as weird as if there is no head.

After the angle was adjusted, its chubby head attracted the audience's strong curiosity, and even Yue'er couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Why does this bird look so strange? It looks cute, and it doesn't look like an eagle at all."

After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, owls are also eagles.

Since it is an eagle, it must be a bird of prey.

However, for water friends, it is difficult to distinguish the snowy owl from the raptor by its cute appearance.

In the lens, the white snowy owl has a chubby head, and its two eyes look like cross-eyed cat eyes from a distance, which makes people laugh and cry.

The smaller beak is hidden in the white downy hair.

From a distance, the bird's chubby head seems to have only two eyes, and other organs are invisible.

"From Brother Yang's words, it does look like an owl, but it's a bit weirder than an owl." Yue'er muttered softly.

Under normal circumstances, owls generally live in trees and are active at night.

But there are no such conditions in the cold northern regions, so most snowy owls build their nests on rocks.

After seeing the ridicule of the water friends, Lin Yang said with a smile: "Don't look at the dumbfounded appearance of this snowy owl, their hunting ability is still relatively strong."

"In the northern tundra, they, like arctic foxes, can hunt lemmings for food."

Arctic rabbits, seagulls, etc. can all be their food.

Except for these animals, wild cats and insects, they don't dislike them at all.

In terms of combat effectiveness, if you occasionally encounter a smaller lynx, you can compete with it.

While Lin Yang was chatting about science with the water friends in the live broadcast room, the snowy owl soaring in the sky suddenly let out a hawk chirp, and its sharp cry pierced the sky!
There is a very strong contrast with their cute appearance.

Because the snowy owl has a certain sense of territory, and it is also a solitary wild bird, so in the footage of Lin Yang's live broadcast room, there is only one snowy owl.

It landed on the tundra, vibrating its wings and round eyes, because of the sharp eagle cry just now, it seems to have added a bit of domineering.

The water friends who just teased this cute bird and the raptor couldn't get along, have sensed the aura of this snowy owl!
Although it still looks stupid and cute, some water friends already believe that it is a bird with raptor fighting power!

At this moment, the snowy owl that landed on the ground seemed to have discovered Lin Yang's camera.

"Oops! The host and Miss Yue'er have been spotted, this bird of prey will not attack, right?"

"I'm curious as to how it attacks. Does it kill the opponent with its big round eyes?"

"Brother in front, don't forget, no matter how cute the snowy owl is, it is also an owl and a type of raptor. Their mouths and claws are quite sharp."

"Then the question is, since they are owls, why do they move and forage during the day?"

Lin Yang glanced at the barrage in the live broadcast room, and Yueer slowly approached the snowy owl.

Because of the little silly dog ​​Aoao and Yaya who are guarding the law, even if the snowy owl attacks, it can't fight against these two little guys beside Lin Yang.

What's more, there is the sea eagle Dabai escorting in the air, and Lin Yang has the blessing of affinity buff, even if he gets close to this raptor snowy owl, he will not be in too much danger.

Although it belongs to the category of owls, the overall size of the snowy owl is still somewhat different from that of larger raptors such as golden eagles.

In terms of combat power, it is even slightly weaker.

After Lin Yang glanced at the barrage in the live broadcast room, he smiled and said to the water friends: "The reason why snowy owls hunt during the day is because of their different habitats."

As we all know, owls like to go out for food in the dark, and the common owl with taupe hair can hide its body in the dark.

But for the white snowy owl, this trick doesn't work in the dark of night in the cold northern regions.

Their original white feathers will be more obvious in the dark night, even if they can be integrated with the ice and snow tundra, it is very difficult to prey in the dark night.

On the other hand, the most important thing is that the closer you get to the North Pole, especially in summer, the closer you get to the Arctic Circle because of the polar day and night.

In summer, there are almost 24 hours of daylight, and there is no prerequisite for them to hunt in the dark.

In winter, there is a long dark night, which is shrouded in darkness for nearly 24 hours. At this time, the snowy owl will migrate to the south.

Because of the special environment and climate, they can hunt at the same time during the day and night.

In the camera, the snowy owl tilted its neck and stared at Lin Yang and Yue'er who were slowly approaching with its two big eyes.

Its small eyes are full of doubts, especially the head that is tilted from side to side, just like a cat observing objects, the owl deserves its name.

On the other hand, the pupils of its eyes are indeed somewhat similar to those of cats.

"Anchor! Although this snowy owl is a bird of prey, it shouldn't be able to handle larger prey, right?"

"What kind of things do they feed on in northern Iceland, where there are relatively few species?"

"You don't need to worry about this issue. Any wild animal or plant has its own way of survival in an extremely harsh environment."

"Indeed, arctic foxes can find lemmings in the tundra to feed themselves, and snowy owls can fly, so they can even go fishing by the sea!"

Lin Yang patiently explained to the water friends in the live broadcast room: "The main range of activity of the snowy owl is in the colder regions of the north, and the small mammals that live here include lemmings, ptarmigans, And small rodents."

"Even the squirrels that come further south are part of their diet."

Before the words were finished, Lin Yang did not forget to add: "Including the arctic fox, which is native to Iceland, can also compete with the snowy owl."

After all, before this, water friends have seen the whole process of arctic foxes hunting lemmings on the tundra through his lens.

Everyone is very familiar with the combat effectiveness of the arctic fox.

At this moment, appearing in the camera, whether this cute and silly snowy owl has a relatively strong combat power is still doubtful at present.

In the footage of the live broadcast room, the snowy owl on the tundra walked slowly towards Lin Yang and Yue'er.

It swings its head from time to time, adjusts the angle, and observes the two 'scary upright apes' it found!
But the curiosity in those little eyes didn't make it deterred by the fear of unknown things, but slowly approached.

Lin Yang then said to the water friends: "Snowy owls have extremely sensitive eyesight, and their eyes are more powerful than human eyes."

"Because there are more light-gathering cells in the eye tissue structure of snowy owls, their binocular vision is stronger."

Not only can you find smaller prey at a longer distance, but you can even observe the distance between yourself and the target object through everything you can see.

"Is it a bad spine? Like cats and dogs, it needs to adjust the angle to observe the details of objects?" Yueer asked curiously.

Lin Yang shook his head and said, "Because the eyeballs of snowy owls cannot turn, so their heads have a very flexible viewing angle. Their heads can turn more than 270 degrees."

While Lin Yang was speaking, the snowy owl's head seemed to turn flat!
It was more like being out of the body, and the water friends in the live broadcast room were very surprised.

"Good guy, their heads seem to be able to be taken off from their bodies, and they move flexibly, making them look even weirder."

"Indeed, you all said this little bird is cute, why do I look a little scary?"

"If I encounter this kind of snowy owl in the wild, tilting its head to look at me, and slowly approaching me, it will scare me to death!"

"Shuiyou, it's not fun to run. If it treats you as a prey with weak combat power, and scratches the aorta with its two paws when it comes up, it will be over for the calf."

Although snowy owls can be regarded as birds of prey in the air in the northern region, their hunting targets will also judge each other's combat effectiveness.

Relatively small prey such as arctic foxes and lemmings will dare to try.

But if they really encounter animals as big as people, even if they seem to be weak in combat, they will not take risks.

As Lin Yang and Yue'er approached, the snowy owl made a whining sound, which was different from the eagle's chirping across the sky before, as if they were two different sounds.

Lin Yang smiled and said to Yue'er who was full of doubts: "Most of the time, they are relatively quiet. In addition to the common sound like a hawk, they will also make such sharp calls as dogs barking. Sounds, even the sound of hitting objects, and baby-like cries, can be made by snowy owls."

Yue'er said with emotion: "The cry of a baby, I remember that there are many descriptions of animals in the Book of Mountains and Seas, it is the cry of a baby!"

The water friends in the live broadcast room laughed one after another:
"If the snowy owl appeared in Shan Hai Jing, how would it be described?"

"There are birds in the north, whose face is like a cat, and whose cry is like a baby's cry, and whose whole body is snow-white, it is edible"

"Brother in front, even if I don't accept the wall, I will obey you!"

"Then the question is, although the snowy owl is a raptor in the air, will they be attacked by other large raptors in the food chain?"

In the lens.

The snowy owl, which doesn't look very smart, is slowly approaching the camera.
