During the breeding season the male has striking, bright blue plumage on his head and tail which he loses in autumn and winter. He plucks yellow petals and shows them to females as part of a courtship display. Females, juveniles and males who are not breeding are a plain mid-brown colour. They all have a long tail that is mostly held cocked and a beautiful high pitched tinkling call.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLive in small social group territories consisting of a long-term pair with a few male or female helper birds that were hatched in the territory but may not be the offspring of the pair. Each partner will sometimes mate with others and assist in raising the young from these pairings. The female constructs a low-lying dome-shaped nest where she incubates the eggs. Both sexes feed the young and other members of the group help. Seen as a symbol of playfulness, joy, happiness, love, loyalty, partnership and cooperation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBased in the Ferguson Valley, South West WA, we draw inspiration from the forests, wildflowers, and wildlife around us, as well as the unique landscapes of greater Australia to create joyful, eco-friendly products.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Western Australian Museum Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51505080074407,"sku":"FAIRY","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/6521\/8471\/files\/Blue_Fairy_Wren_Earrings_-_Pixie_Nut_Co_-_FAIRY.webp?v=1791958700","url":"https:\/\/store.museum.wa.gov.au\/products\/fairy-wren-hoops","provider":"Western Australian Museum Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
