Meet the onlybird that produces music with its wings​

The only bird that plays music with its wings: Meet the club-winged manakin
Nature does not fall short when it comes to blessing the human eyes and ears with surprising marvels! One among these marvels resides deep in the cloud forests of South America. It is a small, vibrant creature called the club-winged manakin that has turned its sound-producing abilities into a concert.

While most birds sing with their vocal cords to attract mates, this unusual bird has taken a completely different approach. It doesn’t sing; instead, it uses its wings to create a musical tone that is quite pure and precise, so much so that it competes as a musical instrument. This sound isn’t just noise; it’s rhythm, it’s tone, and it’s so consistent that it has been compared to a musical note.
Recent research has revealed a unique modification in its body that allows this bird to make such sounds.
