Fabulous, dancing Birds of Paradise trying to attract mates.

Is that first one actually a bird? Where’s its face?

It’s got a black face so it’s hard to see! Actually its got the darkest black feathers in the animal kingdom, absorbing up to 99.95% of directly iridescent light! This is probably to make the blue parts stand out more.
