In the leafy crowns of African forests, this vivid canopy glider slips between branches with soft, gliding hops. It feeds on figs, berries, and tender leaves, choosing ripe fruit with calm deliberation as its wings flash hidden crimson in flight. What makes it extraordinary is its quiet partnership with the trees — dispersing seeds across wide forest gaps, it helps new growth take hold where few others can reach. A burst of color in motion, yet a faithful gardener of the canopy.
