The Superb Fairy-wren (Malurus cyaneus) or ratona australiana azul (Español)

Though these small showy birds are monogamous and form pairs of one male and one female, they are sexually promiscuous and will mate with other individuals outside their relationship. This outrageous goings-on on the public lawns of greater Sydney has yet to be uncovered by current affair TV and talk back radio who would surely call for police to take strong action against such immorality. And the local councils will be forced to erect signs on public greens to warn innocent families of these mischief.
