The Wire-crested Bellbird, also known as the Angelbird, Procnias albapinna, is a species of cotinga found in Frost, Glennshire, Hera, Odysseus, Matterhorn and region of Devonshire; as well as Shire and Potsdam. It is a migratory species that breeds in Devonshire and surrounding countries.

The Angelbird is a small bird, 10-12" (25-30 cm) long. Its wingspan is 23" (58 cm). The male is a white bird with a striking, yellow wired crest with a yellow tail and bill with long, black wattles hanging down. The crest grows longer during the breeding season. The female is mostly a greyish-brown bird with no crest. In both sexes, the eyes are dark brown, almost black. Juveniles resemble females.

It resembles the three-wattled bellbird.

Mainly feeds on small fruits, but sometimes insects, especially when feeding chicks.

Calls

The male's call is a loud "INK-NK-INK-INK-NK-nk-nk-ink...!", slowing down in pitch and sounding like a bell. It lasts a few seconds but he may call over and over again.

Reproduction

The courtship remains highly unknown, because the fact that they are well-hidden. Males are said to be polygamous.

Distribution

It is found in Devonshire, Potsdam and Shire.
