a group of tamarin monkeys wallpapers The pied tamarin is a small monkey found in tropical forests, particularly secondary and edge forests, in a small area around the city of Manaus in Brazil. In adults, the head is bald, with black skin, which along with the large ears, gives this tamarin a striking look. The fur on the shoulders and the front of the body is white, contrasting with a brown back and hindquarters, shading to rust-red on the inner thighs and lower belly. The pied tamarin lives in small family groups. In the wild, groups ranging from 2-10 individuals have been reported. In one study, a family group used an area of about 30 acres, but home range probably varies across groups. Groups mark their area using secretions from scent glands, which they rub on branches. Scent-marking may also be important for communication within a group. for more photos...
different types of monkeys youtube The fur of the Emperor Tamarin is predominantly grey colored, with yellowish speckles on its chest. The hands and feet are black and the tail is brown. Outstanding is its long, white mustache, which extends to both sides beyond the shoulders. The animal reaches a length of 24 to 26 cm (9 1/2 to 10 1/4 in), plus a 35 cm (13 3/4 in) long tail. It weighs approximately 300 to 400 g (10 1/2 to 14 oz). This primate inhabits tropical rain forests, living deep in the forest and also in open tree-covered areas. This diurnal species walks or runs quadrupedally through the forest, spending the majority of its days in the trees with quick, safe movements and broad jumps among the limbs. The Emperor Tamarin lives together in groups of two to eight animals. The oldest female leads the group above several mature males. Mutual grooming plays an important role for bonding and socializing. The Emperor Tamarin is known to form mixed-species associations with the Brown-mantled Tamarin. for more images.....
screen savers of different birds youtube The Maroon Oriole is a medium-sized (25 cm) bird, the male having a black hood and wings, a deep red body and tail and a yellowish iris. The bill and legs are gray. The female is similarly patterned but is dark gray on the back, and has a light grayish belly with heavy blackish streaks. The differences between the Taiwan and mainland subspecies are not obvious in the field. The Maroon Oriole feeds on wild figs, berries, insects and nectar. It prefers moist deciduous and evergreen forests in hills from 150-700m. Usually seen singly or in pairs, it keeps to the canopy and sometimes joins mixed-species flocks. Its nest is a large deep cup of woven fibres, placed in the fork of a high branch near the tree top. Both sexes share in parental duties. In Taiwan the Maroon Oriole is an uncommon resident year-round. Its population has been diminished by the cutting of lowland primary and secondary broadleaved forest and is estimated at just a few hundred individuals. for more pics.....
wild animals of naped oriole bird gallery The Black-naped Oriole, Oriolus chinensis, is a member of the oriole family of passerine birds found in south Asia. This is easily differentiated from the Golden Oriole by the broad black eye-stripe continuing to join on the nape. The black eye-stripe can vary in width, with at least one possible racial variant having no yellow crown patch at all - the black eye-stripe being so wide that it forms a single black semi-hood on the head.[citation needed] The bill is also stouter than that of the former species.It breeds from June to December seasons. The female has the mantle colour more greenish or olive. The species is resident in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The races here are O. c. andamanensis and O. c. macrourus and differ in the pattern of yellow on the wings and tail as well as in the size of the bill. There is a possibility of cryptic species within this group. beautiful birds see...
