Forget boring brown feathers! Urbano the hoopoe sports a punk rock crest and a black-and-white striped body that looks like it came straight out of an art gallery. This little guy with a long beak isn't just stylish though, he's quite the traveler too. Every winter, he trades the European and Asian scene for sunny Africa, migrating to escape the cold. But Urbano's also a family bird at heart. He and his partner take turns keeping their eggs warm and they raise their chicks together, proving that even the most stylish birds can be really soft at heart.
