In the 1960’s, there were 70,000 of these birds on the island of Guam.

“Washington hires Hamilton right on sight
But Hamilton still wants to fight, not write
Now Hamilton’s skill with a quill is undeniable
But what do we have in common?”
“We’re reliable with the … Ladies!”
“There are so many to deflower”
“Ladies … Looks … Proximity to power”
“Ladies … They delighted and distracted him
Martha Washington named her feral tomcat after him”
“That’s true!”
(Though, to be fair, Alexander Hamilton was not actually a leucistic peacock.)
Wreathed Hornbill
According to Wikipedia, the wreathed hornbill is found in forests from far north-eastern India and Bhutan, east and south through mainland Southeast Asia and the Greater Sundas in Indonesia, except Sulawesi.

Bird in Fog
Conceptual comic wondering if the audience will appreciate his “mime trapped in a temporally-shifting hyper-cube” act.
Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis)
These birds are named after the Catholic cardinals, yet not once have one of them turned into a Northern Pope.
