Superb Fairy-wren Cock

Scientific Name: Malurus cyaneus

Beautiful little birds with a nice sounding call, the males will have a little harem of females in his band and they will stake out a territory of around 5 or so acres.
The females are a much duller brown colour.

SUPERB ...... is serious understatement!!!
