I made a rainbow of (some of the many) birds that have documented same sex pairs and behavior.

Scarlet ibis
Guianan cock-of-the-rock (yes really)
Peach-faced lovebird
White fronted amazon
Satin bowerbird
Pukeko

Happy #PrideMonth 😄🌈
#pride #lgbtq #birds #rainbow #nature
Photos of the colorful birds listed above, making a rainbimow scale. Scarlet ibis is bright red with a long curved beak and long pink legs. The cock-of-the-rock is bright orange with a domed crest over its beak. The lovebird is yellow with a pink face. The amazon is green with a red circle around its eye. The bowerbird is shiny deep blue. And the pukeko is a bluish purple color with a red beak.
Homosexuality is found in many species, but homophobia is only found in one. Who's unnatural now?
Cock of the rock needs to be made the official pride bird and get protected status.
Best bird name isn't it :D
I think someone (?maybe David Attenborough?) mentioned same sex penguin pairs on one of the PBS nature shows. They may not be colorful, but not many people wear a tuxedo every day! 😁
