Stitchbird or Hihi (Notiomystis cincta)🐦🦜🕊️🎵❤️
➡️They are the only bird species that mates face to face, in comparison to the more conventional copulation style for birds where the male mounts the female's back.⬅️

I'm less popular on twitter but I know that Red-billed Buffalo-Weaver is the only known bird to experience orgasms while the Stitchbird is the only bird that mate face-to-face. Trust me, knowing these doesn't make you a pervert. Birds aren't real!!! 😅😄😁

if anyone has a spare second to vote for hihi (stitchbird) as bird of the year ZSL ZSL Science have been involved with its conservation for many years and it would help raise the profile of such a lovely little bird ✨ birdoftheyear.org.nz

정보가 너무 많아 뇌가 금세 지치는 반면 소리에 의존할 경우 청각정보를 처리하는 뉴론들만 관여해서인지 지치지 않고 새를 찾아다닐 수 있다. 숲 속에서 작은 산새들을 찾아다닐 때에는 더욱 그렇다.

Female stitchbird/hihi (Notiomystis cincta) at Bushy Park in Whanganui on 12 July. Deleting old photos and thought this one was a bit too nice to consign to the bin. I adore Busy Park, I could spend a few days there quite happily.
