  2. Tropical birds come in many colors and shapes: peacocks show off their colorful feathers, shoebills have a big scary beak, hummingbirds zoom around flying backwards and upside down, and cassowaries are super speedy runners.
  3. These birds are amazing! Peacocks look like they’re wearing colorful suits, shoebills have a scary face, hummingbirds can fly in all directions—even upside down—and cassowaries run faster than most birds.
  4. Peacocks have shiny colorful feathers, shoebills can look a little spooky with their big bills, hummingbirds can fly upside down and backwards, and cassowaries are great runners that can sprint very quickly.
  5. In tropical places, you can see colorful peacocks dressed up in feathers, big-beaked shoebills that look scary, tiny hummingbirds flying backward and upside down, and fast cassowaries running like champions.
