Description
These birds are really colorful and fun to look at! They have bright red bills that stand out against their beautiful blue bodies. Their heads are black and feature a speckled crown, along with orange skin around their eyes that adds even more charm. One of the coolest things about these birds is their long, bright blue tails! When they fly, their tails spread out into a diamond shape, which looks super cool in the air. These lively birds are part of the corvid family, which includes crows, and they are known for being very smart and playful!
