Irena (bird)
The three fairy-bluebirds are small passerine bird species found in forests and plantations in tropical southern Asia and the Philippines. They are the sole members of the genus ''Irena'' and family Irenidae, and are related to the ioras and leafbirds. These are bulbul-like birds of open forest or thorn scrub, but whereas that group tends to be drab in colouration, fairy-bluebirds are sexually dimorphic, with the males being dark blue in plumage, and the females duller green. These species eat fruit, especially figs, and possibly some insects. They lay two to three eggs in a tree nest. The call of the Asian fairy-bluebird is a liquid two note ''Glue-It''. As the names would suggest, the Asian fairy-bluebird (''I. puella'') occurs across southern Asia, the Philippine fairy-bluebird (''I. cyanogastra'') in that archipelago, and the Palawan fairy-bluebird (''I. tweeddalii'') on the island of Palawan. Taxonomy The first scientists to examine fairy-bluebirds placed them in the ge ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
