At the extremes are mating systems where only one parent incubates the eggs and cares for the young. Such as Lekking in the Black Grouse and the Harem of the Long tailed widowbird, and the reverse-harem of the Black Coucal. (Coucal by )

The harpy could not fly well with her small wings, but her long tail and shining plumage were the envy of all ✨

Wanted to make a harpy creature that was a bit different from other ones I've made. She is inspired by pheasants, hawks, and the Long-tailed Widowbird.

But have Hades, a fluffy long-tailed widowbird angel. Fancy old lad, like dogs and silver foxes.

Meet Hades! Long-tailed widowbird angel who is fully covered in fluffy feathers. He is gay, loves dogs and smoking pipes and is pretty badass dark magic users. He is confident and a little (or a little more) flamboyant and he totally would carry a chihuahua in a fancy purse.

The Smoke
I learned about so many cool birds during my Inktober that I had to draw them some more. This antithesis of a phoenix is based on a long-tailed black widowbird.

Lots of birbs for my class. Widowbirds have amazing tailfeathers and silhouettes!
