mousebird

Coliidae

Mousebirds are small, colorful birds that love to hop around in trees. They have long tails and can often be seen hanging upside down while they eat fruits and leaves.

生息地: Forests

外見

The mousebird is a small, slender bird with a distinctive crest on its head and an extremely long, stiff tail, often making up half its total length. They have soft, dull grey-brown plumage, sometimes with a touch of olive, blending seamlessly into their arboreal habitats. Their appearance, combined with their scuttling movements, gives them their mouse-like name.
