The first of April is commonly known as being April Fools Day, so this popular holiday really casts a huge shadow over a less popular global special date also celebrated today - International Bird Day.

To give the wonderful birds the attention they deserve on this day, Sputnik has compiled for you a series of images displaying the stunning, extraordinary and exotic species that inhabit our big and beautiful planet, featuring a peculiar-looking toucan, a white peafowl and a gorgeous crane.
