\“They live in the third level of quadruple canopy where they always have shadows for cover. Males grow webbing between their tail feathers, using it to catch insects. They fly into streams of light netting insects to take back to the nest. Seeing one is a good omen. Not seeing one is a good way to get a face full of bugs and bird net.
