Birds of paradise, talk about sexually dimorphic. It's almost as if the boys look like a totally different species from the girls. They're amazing and I especially love the one that makes it look like there are two glowing white orbs on the field of black, like Carolyn posted. Like, how long did evolution take to come up with THAT?!

And, like vampires, if the lady is willing they will embrace them under the cape and do the deed... Sensational :D

Those birds look awesome. The video that Carolyn creeped me out in the beginning because the wings of that bird looked like a flies or a roaches wing. The sound it made sounded like them too.
