Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
These birds are real bloodsuckers! Vampire finches get their unique feeding habits. Individuals use their sharp beaks to create shallow wounds in the body and wings of larger birds like boobies, and drink the exposed blood as a supplement to their diet of insects. However, their victims don't seem to mind-- it's thought that this behaviour also removes parasites from their host's feathers.
