  1. A recent study reveals that 37 out of 45 birds-of-paradise species exhibit biofluorescence, absorbing UV or blue light and emitting it as vibrant colors. This phenomenon enhances males' courtship displays and may serve as camouflage for females. Nature's wonders never cease to amaze!

  6. Study Finds That #BirdsOfParadise Are Biofluorescent amnh.org/about/press-center/bi paper: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi

    "an organism absorbs light, transforms it, and emits it as a different color... This phenomenon is especially prominent in males, focused on their bright plumage and skin in areas that are highlighted during displays: the inner mouth and bill, feet, and feathers on the head, neck, and belly... pigments in the #birds’ eyes align with the #fluorescence peaks"
