riflebird
A riflebird is a type of bird belonging to the family Paradisaeidae, which is known for their complex courtship rituals and elaborate plumage. Native to New Guinea and Australia, these birds are predominantly black in color, often with iridescent patches of blue, green, or bronze. The males are known for their unique and extravagant mating dances. The name "riflebird" originates from the likeness of their dark feathers to the uniform of British soldiers, known as riflemen.
