Natural selection has left the chat. While most animals sensibly evolved camouflage to avoid becoming someone's lunch, birds decided to go full peacock and become walking disco balls.

The shiny plumage that attracts mates also attracts predators—nature's way of ensuring only the most ridiculously flamboyant genes survive. Darwin is somewhere shaking his head.
