Peacock
Pavo cristatus
The train is not the tail. The real tail holds the train up. Engineering!
Seeds, insects, small reptiles. Pretty birds still have to eat lunch.
Anteater

The tongue can be 60 cm long and flick 150 times a minute.
Ants and termites. Tens of thousands a day. They do not chew; they slurp.
Who do YOU think wins?
