They are so twitchy cute!! How do they not poke their eyes at the speed they are grooming each other?

[-] foofiepie@lemmy.world 21 points 4 weeks ago

I think it’s because they see their movements at ‘normal’ speed. We would look slow to them, they look sped up, to us.

We must look really slow to them, like sloths.

So these are bright male superb fairywrens? Wait no they dont have dark breasts

I'm not sure. The blue wings and the blue streaks on the breast make me think intermediate splendid fairywrens? They may also be hybrid fairywrens or molting males, which are apparently commonly confused for hybrids.

Oh, Jesus…

How the hell do these things kill you?

With cuteness, right in the kisser!

[-] JoeTheSane@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I… don’t hate that.

They ask you seemingly-innocent questions like, "May I have your name?" when you're alone in the woods.

Well, that was absolutely adorable!
