  Can you imagine getting named the red-backed fairywren when your fellow bird species are getting named stuff like that?

  Sure, they’re lovely, superb…splendid even. But they’re not as magnificent as some other birds.

    They may be magnificent, but are they powerful?

    Whoever said bird people are boring clearly hasn’t seen some of the names they come up with.

      They’re definitely biased, though. For every “majestic” or “superb” bird there’s one named something like “drab titwaffle”
