Golden Spiraltail

Data
The Golden Spiraltail is a rare variation of the Spiraltail. Their feathers are a yellow color with a white underbelly. Their spiraling tail feather, as the name suggests, is a shining gold color. The Golden Spiraltail is a bit larger than the regular Spiraltail as well.

Golden Spiraltails can be rarely found in groups with normal Spiraltails. They make a distinct song, but they are difficult to approach. The slightest hint of danger will send them flying away, along with the rest of their group.

Researchers are unsure if it is a subspecies or some kind of mutation.

Biologist's Notes
"Amazing! I've never been able to spot a Golden Spiraltail in the wild, and here I am being presented with one! And that song! The three of us should form a band!"

Notes and Trivia

 * Like the normal Spiraltail, Golden Spiraltails can be found asleep at night, although this is even rarer than finding one during the day.
 * A Ghillie Mantle is almost required to catch one, as they leave once the hunter gets within a certain distance.
 * Their calls can be heard from the next area over to signal that one is nearby.
 * The Golden Spiraltail was originally inspired by a Goldfinch sighting outside of the creator's home.
