ЧТО ОЗНАЧАЕТ СЛОВО COURSER
рысак
Курсоры представляют собой группу птиц, которые вместе с пратинколями составляют семью Glareolidae. У них длинные ноги, короткие крылья и длинные заостренные счета, которые выгибаются вниз. Их самая необычная особенность для птиц, классифицированных как кулики, заключается в том, что они обитают в пустынях и подобных засушливых регионах. Они имеют загадочное оперение и приседают, когда встревожены, чтобы избежать обнаружения хищниками. Как и пратинколы, курсоры встречаются в более теплых частях Старого Света. Они охотятся на насекомых, бегая. Их 2-3 яйца лежат на земле.
