Malurus cyaneus, Superb Fairy or Blue Wrens are small energetic, well-known birds found across most of south-eastern Australia, in areas where there is dense undergrowth or low shrubs for shelter. During the breeding season the male has striking, bright blue plumage on his head and tail which he loses in autumn and winter. He also plucks yellow petals and shows them to females as part of a courtship display. Females, juveniles and males who are not breeding are a plain mid-brown colour. They all have a long tail that is mostly held cocked and a beautiful high pitched tinkling call. Seen as a symbol of playfulness, joy, happiness, love, loyalty, partnership and cooperation.
Care instructions: do not wear swimming or bathing.
