Being both beautiful birds that have certain similarities its no wonder that they have such similar names. You wouldn't normally think that they would look much different, in fact I don't think that I would know the difference if it wasn't for the tail feathers, however when placed next to each other they look completely different.
I encourage you to look at both of these fascinating creatures,
