North American cock-of-the-rock (SciiFii)

The North American cock-of-the-rock (Rupicola temperatus), also more commonly known as the chicken-of-the-rock and the northern cock-of-the-rock, is a species of large passerine bird of the cotinga family that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced a throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The North American cock-of-the-rock exhibits marked sexual dimorphism; the male has a large disk-like crest and scarlet or brilliant orange plumage, while the female is significantly darker and browner. Gatherings of males compete for breeding females with each male displaying its colourful plumage, bobbing and hopping, and making a variety of calls. After mating, the female makes a nest under a rocky overhang, incubates the eggs, and rears the young by herself. The North American cock-of-the-rock eats a diet of fruit, supplemented by insects, amphibians, reptiles, and small mammals. The conservation status of the North American cock-of-the-rock is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the North American cock-of-the-rock's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities, including being able to adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
