Superb Fairy Wren
The Superb Fairy Wren is a little guy local to southern Australia! The females look much less fancy, but are still adorable. They even have a cute little dance they do to attract mates, using their beautiful feathers in a full dissolution. There are actually many different kinds of fairy wrens. Learn More!
Passenger Pigeon
Although the passenger pigeon is extinct, they still hold a tender place in everyone’s hearts. Hunted to extinction, the Passenger Pigeon used to come in huge flocks of billions. They used to be the most abundant bird in North America. This is part of the reason they went extinct, as efforts to breed them in captivity failed since they needed large flocks to meet their breeding criteria. Learn More!

My Favorite songbird in all of Australia, The superb Fairy Wren.
These Little guys weigh a maximum of 13 grams but they are easy to spot in their breeding season when Males moult into the iridescent blue plumage pictured here. These birds are quite popular in pottery and glassware, I am amassing quite the collection from op shops,
