Bird+Superlatives

 __Most Hyper: House Finch __ House Finch flits to and fro incessantly searching for seeds, nuts, berries, etc. The only time House Finch as been known to sit still is while crushing seeds (which he does with rapid bites). They have extremely bouncy flight patterns, as well. House Finch's song is long and quick.

__Class Clown: Parakeet __ Parakeet has been known to do many an idiotic thing. Constantly climbing things, telling jokes, and making faces when the teacher isn't looking are some of his favourite pasttimes. In this picture, Parakeet is demonstrating his love of vacuuming!

__Most Likely to Become President: Great Blue Heron __ One of Great Blue heron's goals in life is indeed to go into politics. He is very and noble. Most notable, he wears a very stately black hat every day! Great Blue Heron is even a diplomat, traveling to the Caribbean and Canada annualy.

__Best Dressed: Rainbow Lorikeet __ She is often thought of as one of the most beautiful in North America. She has a very unique sense of style that all the other birds are jealous of. Rainbow Lorikeet's daily attire is extremely vibrant, consisting of dark blue, yellow, orange, green, and red.

__Most Likely to Win a Nobel Peace Prize: Mourning Dove __ Mourning Dove has been known to cry out for peace! She is definitely known as the advocate around these parts. Famous people have even written about her (Robert Bly, Charles Wright, Jared Carter, etc.).

__Prettiest Eyes: Snowy Owl __ Those eyes! Gorgeous! Look at that sparkling orange-yellow! She mainly uses these eyes in order to effectively hunt for prey (grouse, rats, raccoons, gulls, hares, aquirrels, etc.). It is rumoured that Hedwig's eyes (from Harry Potter) were based off of Snowy Owl's.

__Most Uncoordinated: Common Chicken __ Chicken was granted this superlative based on the awkward way in which she walks. The head-bobbing motion is generally just thought of among the bird population as strange. She has been known to trip over her own feet and cannot fly.

__Most Athletic: Peregrine Falcon __ <span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Peregrine Falcon can reach top speeds of 202 miles per hour when hunting (her favourite thing to do on the weekend).

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Most Musical: Mockingbird __ <span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Mockingbird is best known for her mimicry. She often does covers of popular songs putting her own spin on things. These renditions have earned her the superlative of Most Musical.

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Most likely to Sleep During Class: Eastern Screech Owl __ <span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Being nocturnal,Eastern Screech Owl finds it nearly impossible to stay awake during class. He's been known to snore especially loudly, with an almost whiny quality.

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Most Unique: Dodo Bird __ <span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Dodo wins the Most Unique superlative for obvious reasons. His abnormally tiny arms and large feet give him an extremely disproportional appearance. Another distinguishing feature is the large, rounded end of his beak.

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Most Likely to be Rich and Famous: Bald Eagle __ <span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Bald Eagle is so stately and regal looking that nearly everyone is sure he'll be famous one day. He has the kind of face that could represent a country or even be on currency!

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Most Laid Back: African Grey Parrot __ <span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">African Grey Parrot is extremely laid back. He is very gentle by nature. I'm guessing that's what happens when one originates in Africa.

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Best Hair: Golden Pheasant __ <span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">It's evident why Golden Pheasant was voted to have the best hair. Nearly all the birds are envious of those flowing golden locks.

__<span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Edward Cullen Award for Sparkly Smugness: Peacock __ <span style="color: #000080; font-family: Georgia,serif;">Peacock is all that and he certainly knows it. He uses it to his advantage, as well. All the ladies flock to him.
