What is that?! I like it very much. Note the eye and the delicate violet plumage.

note: this isn't a true bird of paradise, even though 'paradise' is in the name

I am not convinced it is the same one. I think it looks more like the Japanese paradise flycatcher.
But actually, all the paradise flycatcher species appear to be lovely. See below:

Not weird, but clearly very important.

sorry about your thread though, dayo. to atone for this invasion of Monarch Flycatchers, I will post an animal of genuinely unhinged behaviour, whose name is also Monarch:

worth reading up on the Monarch butterfly - it seems to be going the way of the Passenger Pigeon, which in a few decades went from America's most populous bird (the Monarch butterfly is/was the most populous butterfly too) to completely extinct due to population crash and migration failure. the Monarch is running out of habitat and its numbers are falling through the floor. it's all horrible
― imago, Friday, 10 June 2016 15:16 (nine years ago)
Where I live the Monarchs used to pass through as part of their migration - you'd see tons of trees (eucalyptus, I think) covered with them like that picture, it was crazy. Now you see a few but nothing like that.

The Tennessee Aquarium in the United States is home to an electric eel that uses its electrical discharges to post from its own Twitter account. Named Miguel Wattson, the eel's exhibit is wired to a small computer that sends out a prewritten tweet when it emits electricity at a high enough threshold.[13][14][relevant? – discuss]

Reading about the amazing Australian lyrebird and its mimicking ability, including the way it passes on "recorded" sounds from generatiion to generation...
In 1969, a park ranger, Neville Fenton, recorded a lyrebird song which resembled flute sounds in the New England National Park, near Dorrigo in northern coastal New South Wales. After much detective work by Fenton, it was discovered that in the 1930s, a flute player living on a farm adjoining the park used to play tunes near his pet lyrebird. The lyrebird adopted the tunes into his repertoire, and retained them after release into the park. Neville Fenton forwarded a tape of his recording to Norman Robinson. Because a lyrebird is able to carry two tunes at the same time, Robinson filtered out one of the tunes and put it on the phonograph for the purposes of analysis. The song represents a modified version of two popular tunes in the 1930s: "The Keel Row" and "Mosquito's Dance". Musicologist

very curious how accurate it is, and how accurately the tune is preserved down the avian generations
