Blue-winged Leafbird

Passeriformes - Chloropseidae -  Chloropsis moluccensis (Burung-Daun Biasa)

Medium-sized forest-dweller that is often seen in pairs or with mixed flocks. Male has a yellow tinge to the head and a triangular black patch with a deep blue center extending down from between the eye and the base of the bill. Female is green all over with a small blue throat smudge. Both sexes have vivid blue highlights on the wings, which help to distinguish it from other similar leafbirds in its range such as Greater Green and Lesser Green Leafbirds, both of which have plain green wings. Vocalizations very varied, including a rather slow, simple song consisting of whistles and warbles, a repetitive and strident “weet weet weet”, and a sweet “wi’weep.”

Beauty is always beheld only when one truly opens up to see.

It can't be faith if it's seeing only after you have seen.

Of non-existence the use



Three [times] ten spokes unite in one nave.
Through its void, there is the wheel's utility.

By kneading clay thereby is made the vessel.
Through its void, there is the vessel's utility.

By cutting out doors [and] windows, thereby is made a room.
Through its void there is the room's utility.

Therefore, existence's thus being profitable [is] non-existence's thus being useful.
