The Banded Cotinga

This world is full of astonishing creatures but unfortunately many of them are on the brink of extinction due to quickly disappearing habitats and illegal hunts. One of them is the banded cotinga, a stunning bird that is sadly clinging to survival.

This unique bird stands out in the crowd thanks to its striking shade of cobalt blue and its dark magenta throat and chest, not to mention the black polka dots on its back as well as back borders on its wings and tail.
