Monga akabawi ndi ziwombankhanga, akadzidzi ndi mbalame zodya nyama, okhala ndi zikhadabo zakuthwa ndi milomo yopindika:
- kusaka;
- kupha;
- idyani nyama zina.
Koma akadzidzi ndi osiyana ndi akadzidzi ndi ziwombankhanga. Ziwombankhanga zili ndi:
- mitu yayikulu;
- matupi olimba;
- nthenga zofewa;
- michira yayifupi;
- khosi limatembenuza mutu 270 °.
Maso a kadzidzi akuyembekezera mtsogolo. Mitundu yambiri imagwira ntchito usiku osati masana.
Zikwama za gulu la Strigiformes, zomwe zidagawika m'mabanja awiri kutengera mawonekedwe akutsogolo kwa mutu:
- ku Tytonidae chimafanana ndi mtima;
- ku Strigidae ndi yozungulira.
Padziko lapansi, pafupifupi mitundu 250 ya akadzidzi imakhala m'makontinenti onse kupatula ku Antarctica, mitundu yoposa 10 yokha ndi yomwe imapezeka ku Russia.
Ziwombankhanga zotchuka kwambiri
Chiwombankhanga
Chifukwa cha nthenga zake, siziwoneka pamtengo masana. Mtundu kuyambira imvi mpaka bulauni ndi kufiyira. Kumbuyo kumakhala ndi mawanga oyera, masamba amapewa ndi otuwa imvi, pali kolala yoyera pakhosi, mchira ndi wotuwa, wokhala ndi mitsempha yakuda ndi yakuda, yokhala ndi mikwingwirima yoyera 4-5. Pamutu pake, zikopa ziwiri zofiirira zofiirira zimawonekera m'mbali mwa korona. Maso ndi achikaso, mulomo ndi wakuda buluu. Mapaundi ndi mapazi bulauni mpaka bulauni bulauni.
Kadzidzi Tawny
Mbalame zimakhala ndi thupi lakuda lakuda, lakumbuyo kofiira kofiira kumbuyo. Mutu ndi kumtunda kwa khosi ndikuda, pafupifupi wakuda. Mitundu yambiri yoyera yokhala ndi m'mbali zakuda imaphimba kumbuyo, kupita kutsogolo kwa korona. Masamba amapewa ndi oyera ndi mikwingwirima yakuda. Palibe zotumphukira m'makutu. Mlomo ndi wakuda wobiriwira. Maso ndi ofiira.
Kadzidzi
Iye:
- thupi lopangidwa ndi mbiya;
- maso akulu;
- zotumphukira zakhutu sizimayima.
Thupi lakumtunda ndi lofiirira wakuda ndi wachikasu bulauni, pakhosi ndi loyera. Mawanga akuda kumbuyo. Kumbuyo ndi m'mbali mwa khosi pali mizere yoluka, mawanga akuthwa pamutu. Gawo lakunja la chimbale chofiyira chakumaso limakhala ndi mawanga akuda. Mchirawo ndi wakuda bulauni. Milomo ndi zikhadabo zakuda. Mapazi ndi zala zake zili ndi nthenga zonse. Mtundu wa diso kuchokera ku lalanje-wachikaso mpaka walanje lalanje (kutengera ma subspecies).
Kadzidzi Polar
Kadzidzi wamkulu amakhala ndi mutu wozungulira bwino komanso wopanda makutu. Thupi limadzaza ndi nthenga zowirira pamapazi ake. Mbalame zoyera zili ndi mawanga akuda kapena abulauni pamatupi ndi mapiko awo. Kwa akazi, mawanga amapezeka kawirikawiri. Amuna ndiopepuka komanso oyera ndi msinkhu. Maso ndi achikaso.
Kadzidzi khola
Ali ndi chimbale cha nkhope yoyera, chokhala ngati mtima komanso chifuwa choyera chokhala ndi mawanga ang'onoang'ono abulauni. Kumbuyo kumakhala kofiirira wachikaso ndimadontho akuda ndi oyera. Amuna ndi akazi ali ofanana mumtundu, koma akazi ndi okulirapo, akuda kwambiri komanso owonekera.
Kadzidzi nsomba
Thupi lakumtunda ndi lofiirira kofiira ndi mawanga akuda ndi mitsempha. Khosi limayera. Pansi pake pa thupi pali chikasu chofiyira chofiirira komanso mikwingwirima yakuda. Ntchafu zakumtunda ndi zotetezera ndizopepuka. Diso lakumaso silotchuka, lofiirira kofiirira. Mutu ndi nape uli ndi nthenga zazitali, zowoneka bwino. Palibe zotsekemera m'makutu. Maso ndi akuda bulauni. Pansi pa mapazi ake mulibe udzu wonyezimira komanso wowoneka bwino, pazitsulo pali ma spicule omwe amathandiza kugwira ndikugwira nsomba.
Kadzidzi wokoma
Mapiko ataliatali ozungulira amayenda kumbuyo mbalame ikakhala pansi. Mtundu wa thupi ndimtundu wa bulauni ndi mitsempha yowongoka. Mawanga otumbululuka pankhope ya nkhope amafanana ndi nsidze, malo oyera amakhala pansi pa mlomo wakuda, maso ndi lalanje kapena achikaso, zikopa ndi zala zakuthupi zimakutidwa ndi nthenga. Ziphuphu zazitali zakuda zimawoneka ngati makutu, koma ndi nthenga zokha.
Kadzidzi Hawk
Mbalame ya m'nkhalango yotopetsa imakhala ngati nkhwangwa, koma imawoneka ngati kadzidzi. Thupi lozungulira, maso achikaso ndi nkhope yozungulira, yopangidwa ndi bwalo lamdima, ali ngati owl. Komabe, mchira wautali ndi chizolowezi chouma pamitengo yokha komanso kusaka masana ndizokumbutsa za mphamba.
Kadzidzi wa mphungu
Dothi lakumaso lofiirira lokhala ndi mikwingwirima yopapatiza, yoyera, yozungulira kwambiri. Maso ndi achikaso chowala komanso mdima wopapatiza mozungulira iwo. Sera ndi yobiriwira imvi kapena bulauni-bulauni, mlomowo ndi wakuda bii ndi nsonga yowala. Pali malo oyera pamphumi. Korona ndi nape ndizofiirira chokoleti, zokhala ndi mizere yoluka yoluka.
Kumbuyo, chovala ndi mapiko ndizofiirira. Mchira ndi wautali, wakuda bulauni ndi nsonga yoyera, wokhala ndi mikwingwirima yotuwa yakuda. Zala zazing'ono zamphongo zobiriwira, zobiriwira kapena zobiriwira.
Kadzidzi wamfupi
Kadzidzi
Chosungira nkhope sichidziwika bwino. Mchira ndi bulauni yakuda ndi mikwingwirima yoyera kapena yoyera ya buffy. Zala zakuda ndi zofiirira, zopindika, misomali imakhala yakuda komanso nsonga zakuda.
Mpheta kadzidzi
Chimbale chosadziwika bwino, chofiirira chofiirira ndi mizere ingapo yakuda. Nsidze zoyera, maso achikaso. Sera ndi imvi, mlomo ndi wachikasu-nyanga.
Thupi lakumtunda ndi lofiirira chakuda kapena chofiirira chakuda, chokhala ndi mawanga ofiirira oyera pamphumi, kumbuyo ndi chovala chokhala ndi timadontho tating'ono toyera pafupi ndi m'mphepete mwake mwa nthenga. Kumbuyo kwa mutu kuli maso abodza (nkhope ya occipital), yopangidwa ndi mawanga awiri akulu akuda ozunguliridwa ndi mabwalo oyera.
Pakhosi ndi thupi lotsika ndi loyera, mawanga abulauni m'mbali mwa chifuwa, mizere yofiirira kuyambira pakhosi mpaka pamimba. Tariso ndi pansi pa zala zachikasu ndi zoyera kapena zofiirira. Manja okhala ndi nsonga zakuda.
Upland Owl
Chiwombankhanga chokhala ndi malo ozungulira, oyera nkhope ozunguliridwa ndi mkombero wakuda wokhala ndi malo oyera oyera. Dera laling'ono lakuda pakati pa maso ndi pansi pamlomo. Maso ndi otumbululuka kukhala achikaso chowala. Sera ndi milomo zimakhala zachikasu.
Kadzidzi wamng'ono
Chimbale chakumaso sichimadziwika, ndi bulauni-bulauni ndi mawanga owala komanso nsidze zoyera. Maso kuchokera ku imvi-chikasu mpaka chikasu, phula la azitona-imvi, mlomo kuchokera kubiriwira wobiriwira mpaka wachikasu. Mphumi ndi korona ndi zamizere komanso zoyera. Thupi lakumtunda ndi lofiirira komanso limakhala ndi mawanga oyera ambiri. Khosi ndi kolala yopapatiza yakuda pansi. Zala zake ndi zotuwa zofiirira, zokhotakhota, misomali imakhala yakuda komanso malekezero akuda.
