The bird-of-paradise is aptly named– this particular bird-of-paradise, also known as the crescent-caped lophronia or the curl-caped bird of paradise, has stunning black feathers that absorb over 99% of the light that strikes them.
On top of all that, the crescent-caped lophronia makes a habit of puffing up its chest and shuffling its feet to attract a mate.
