There are so many beautiful birds on this planet that a list of 100, much less 10 couldn’t do justice to all of them. That being said, the criteria for beautiful birds for this blog had to be rather strict. First, the bird has to have good proportions. The exotic red feathers of the scarlet ibis are lovely, but the bird has that overlong curved beak that makes it a bit too weird for the list.
The flamingo is also too funny-looking. Other birds with strange-looking or outsized beaks, with notable wattles, oversized feet, disproportionately long legs, and casques also don’t make the list. Feathers do not have to be very colorful, but they must not give the appearance of having a rough texture or untidiness. The smoother-looking the feathers are the better, which rules out a bird such as South America’s guira cuckoo. There must be no large bare patches on the head and neck or a notable crop, which rules out most vultures. With that in mind, here are the 10 most beautiful birds in the world.
