The Red-breasted Merganser was one of the many species originally described by Linnaeus in his 18th-century work, Systema Naturae.

The adult Red-breasted Merganser is long with a wingspan.

The Red-breasted Merganser is one of the species to which the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds ( AEWA ) applies.

Although they are seaducks, most of the mergansers prefer riverine habitats, with only the Red-breasted Merganser being common at sea.

The Red-breasted Goose ( Branta ruficollis ) is a brightly marked, endangered species of goose in the genus Branta from Eurasia.

Among the species from these two genera, the Red-breasted Goose is the smallest at in length.

The Red-breasted Goose is one of the species to which the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds ( AEWA ) applies.

As it is not clear to what extent the known population fluctuates in this species – as in other Arctic geese – and given the worsening outlook for the species as a whole, the Red-breasted Goose was uplisted from a species of Least Concern to Endangered status in the 2007 IUCN Red List.

It is also known as the Rufous-necked Wryneck, Red-breasted Wryneck, African Wryneck or Rufous-throated Wryneck.

The Red-breasted Flycatcher ( Ficedula parva ) is a small passerine bird in the Old World flycatcher family.

It is sometimes considered a subspecies of the Red-breasted Flycatcher.

The Red-breasted Sapsucker ( Sphyrapicus ruber ), is a medium-sized woodpecker of the forests of the west coast of North America.

The Red-breasted Nuthatch ( Sitta canadensis ) is a small songbird.

Like all nuthatches, the Red-breasted Nuthatch is assigned to the genus Sitta ( Linnaeus, 1758 ), a name derived from sittē ( σιττη ), the Ancient Greek word for the Eurasian Nuthatch.

" Red-breasted " is a reference to the rusty colour of the male's underparts.

The Red-breasted Nuthatch is monotypic across its extensive range.

The Red-breasted Nuthatch is a small passerine, measuring in length, with a wingspan of and a weight of 0. 35 oz ( 10 g ).

The Red-breasted Nuthatch's call is high-pitched, nasal and weak.

Though it is primarily a full-time resident of northern and subalpine conifer forests, the Red-breasted Nuthatch regularly migrates irruptively, with both the number migrating and the wintering locations varying from year to year.

Like all nuthatches, the Red-breasted Nuthatch is an acrobatic species, hitching itself up and down tree trunks and branches.

The Red-breasted Nuthatch, like all nuthatches, is monogamous.

Because of its large global range and its increasing population, the Red-breasted Nuthatch is rated as a species of Least Concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature.

The Red-breasted Swallow, also known as the Rufous-chested Swallow, ( Cecropis semirufa ) is a large swallow.

Red-breasted Swallow is like a giant Red-rumped Swallow, 24 cm long, with blue upperparts other than a reddish collar and rump.

The grasslands of semi-evergreen forest is also inhabited by leopard, elephant, barasingha or swamp deer, barking deer, wild boar, hog deer, bison, otter, Hoolock Gibbon, Golden langur, wild water buffalo, capped langur, pygmy hog, bear, grey-headed fish eagle, Pallas's Fish Eagle, Crested serpent eagle, Swamp partridge, Red jungle fowl, Bengal florican, Whistling Teal, Pelican, Red-breasted Parakeet, Black-necked stork, Adjutant Stork, Open-bill stork, Egret, Heron, White-winged wood duck, Rock python, monitor lizard, turtle and other commonly found species.

The Red-breasted Goose breeds in Arctic Siberia, mainly on the Taymyr Peninsula, with smaller populations in the Gydan and Yamal peninsulas.

The Red-breasted Goose often nests close to nests of birds of prey, such as Snowy Owls and Peregrine Falcons, which helps to protect this small goose from mammalian predators such as the Arctic Fox.

While wintering, the Red-breasted Goose feeds on grasses, leafs and seeds.

Most species are non-migratory and live in their habitat year-round, although the North American Red-breasted Nuthatch migrates to warmer regions during the winter.

The Red-breasted Nuthatch, Corsican Nuthatch and Chinese Nuthatch have breeding ranges separated by thousands of kilometres, but are similar in habitat preference, appearance and song.

These are the least marine of this group, only Red-breasted being common on the sea.

They host many endemic and endangered species, such as Great White Pelican, Dalmatian Pelican, Pygmy Cormorant, Cattle Egret, Little Egret, Greater Flamingo, White-headed Duck, Ferruginous Duck, Eurasian Spoonbill, Glossy Ibis, Houbara Bustard, Great Black-headed Gull, Slender-billed Gull, Squacco Heron, Common Crane, Demoiselle Crane, Slender-billed Curlew, Black Stork, Red-breasted Goose, Lesser White-fronted Goose, Lesser Kestrel, Whooper Swan, Tundra Swan, Osprey, Pallid Harrier, Short-toed Eagle and many others.

Red-breasted Mergansers dive and swim underwater.

The genus also includes the Red-naped Sapsucker, Red-breasted Sapsucker, and Williamson's Sapsucker.

They sometimes hybridize with Red-naped Sapsuckers or Red-breasted Sapsuckers where their breeding ranges overlap.

The Asian species Ficedula albicilla previously considered a subspecies of the Red-breasted Flycatcher, but has the red throat surrounded by grey and a different song.
