Birds On A Guitar

French artist Céleste Boursier-Mougenot created a walk-though aviary for a flock of zebra finches, furnished with electric guitars and other musical instruments.

As the birds go about their routine activities, perching on or feeding from the various pieces of equipment, they create a captivating, live soundscape. LINK, Via: Youtube

Only 2,000 Left - The Rainbow That Can Fly

There is something about the Rainbow Finch that makes it look like an animal made up, using Photoshop, for an April Fool joke. The colors seem too bright to be real and each garish hue ends abruptly to be replaced by one equally as preposterous for a wild animal. The main part of its body looks like some psychedelic Neapolitan ice cream.

Found in Australia, there are only around two thousand of them left in the wild. Although conservation attempts are ongoing the question is whether or not this beautiful species will join the ranks of those who only survive in captivity. LINK
