New Britain sparrowhawk : ウィキペディア英語版 | New Britain sparrowhawk
The New Britain sparrowhawk (''Accipiter brachyurus'') is a threatened species of bird of prey. It is endemic to two Papua New Guinea islands, New Britain and New Ireland. Even in 1934 Ernst Mayr, in his survey of mountain bird life during the Whitney South Sea Expedition, found the New Britain sparrowhawk to be very rare.〔Mayr, E.: "Birds Collected During the Whitney South Sea Expedition. XXVIII", page 1. American Museum of Novitates, 1934〕 ==Description== These sparrowhawks are grey with a white underbelly and orange accents on the neck. They are often characterized by their large feet. They are the only hawk in New Britain or the Solomon Islands that has a middle toe that is longer than the rest.〔 The feet of the New Britain sparrowhawks are pale yellow. These small birds only grow to be 27–34 cm long.
