Jungle Echoes

Sherwood and Hatchard describe the life history of a bilaterally gynandromorphic regal jumper in fascinating detail here, including some behavioral trials -- though near-perfectly split into male and female halves, overall this captive-bred regal exhibited more male-typical behaviors, though without much interest in courtship, and lived a two-year lifespan more expected from a female.

ブロンズトキ（Glossy Ibis）

Also known as the glorious velvet ant, this tiny ambling squeaker has confused scientists with her fashion choices. At first it was believed that she was mimicking the fruits of the creosote bush (Larrea tridentata), which are also common around her stomping grounds. Turns out that she's been wearing white millions years before the plant arrived on its landmass. Now it is believed that her white fuzz simply helps her keep cool— which isn't as exciting of an answer but still an interesting look into how organisms adapt to living in the desert.
