CEBU FLOWERPECKER
This bird Found only in the Cebu Islands in the Philippines, these birds were thought to be extinct due to the disappearance of their habitat. But in 1992 they popped up again in a small limestone forest in the Central Cebu Protected Landscape.

Their name, Quadricolor, refers to the 4 colors of the male’s plumage: blue, red, white and yellow. Cebu Flowerpeckers are frugivorous which means they eat only fruit and seeds.

There are only 105 Cebu Flowerpeckers in the world. A great effort is now made to conserve them.
This bird is so beautiful and rare.... also, create nature. Also know that this bird is smarter..... in other birds. Mainly this bird you can see in the Amazon forest.
While most diurnal birds tend to be active very early in the morning, the Cebu Flowerpecker differs.[5] Because the species is known to be bullied by other aggressive birds such as the Red-Striped Flowerpecker, it chooses to be active between 9 am to 1 pm, after the busiest time of the day, in order to avoid these more competitive species.[5] When foraging, it tends to fly quickly to its preferred flowering plant, feed, and then promptly fly away immediately after.[5] Although the Cebu Flowerpecker rarely calls, its sound is similar to the Pygmy Flowerpecker’s call.[5]
