Birds are pretty much the most beautiful creatures that exist in this world, even though most people won't probably say that when they are asked such a question. They come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and even personalities just like every other living creature on this planet—it's just that, they are more majestic in every single way compared to other living things.

Just imagine how amazing it would be to be able to soar into the blue skies above, instead of just being bounded to the ground with our legs, always on the fight with gravity. Imagine the wind rushing past us as we fly towards our destination without the hassle of squeezing between cars in the road...well, who would not want that?

Birds are lucky enough to be gifted with the power of flight, but they are even luckier to be blessed with such amazing appearances that come in a multifold of beautiful bright colors. They are one of the reasons why the world is such a colorful place to live in.

They aren't only magnificently pretty, they are also one of the most pleasant animals you can ever come across, just the perfect match for their gorgeous looks!
