Magnet Crowned Pigeon- Crimson Red Fabric 44mm
This magnet shows the white silhouette of a Victoria Crowned Pigeon (Goura victoria) against crimson red fabric. This large bird is named after Queen Victoria and is native to New Guinea. Diameter is 44mm (1.73").
Fun fact: While walking slowly through the undergrowth they constantly call out to make sure their mates are still close. This contact call sounds very eerie when heard the first time, almost like a human voice quietly humming "hmmm"
Birds are warm-blooded vertebrates known for their feathers, beaks, and ability to fly in most species. They encompass a wide variety, including eagles, sparrows, penguins, and ostriches. Feathers serve multiple functions, aiding in flight, insulation, and display. Birds have a high metabolic rate and maintain a constant body temperature. They lay hard-shelled eggs, and many exhibit complex behaviours such as elaborate courtship rituals and intricate nest-building. Birds contribute significantly to ecosystems through roles like pollination and pest control, showcasing remarkable diversity in their habitats and adaptations.
