The novel "The Red and the Black" is a novel that everyone will not be unfamiliar with, it appears in the must-read list of teenagers all year round, but unfortunately few people are willing to read it. However, when it comes to the achievements of "The Red and the Black", it is well deserved to be called a world classic. As a romantic novelist in the Napoleonic Empire in the 19th century, Stendhal became famous mainly for art and travel books, and even people did not know its real name, and its novels were slowly widely circulated after his death.

"Red and Black" tells the story of a love-hate dixie counterattack failure. "Red" represents the army and black represents "church", which are the two main paths for young people to climb up the upper levels during the French Revival, representing a certain degree of political opportunism. The story of Red and Black was inspired by a death case published in February 1829. In the novel, there is a handsome and elegant young man named Julien Sorel, who actually memorizes the entire Bible, which is naturally appreciated by the mayor of Villeyer and invited him to be a tutor, but he takes the opportunity to get along with the mayor's wife, Rena. With the help of Madame Rena, Julian became a member of the honor guard, but the story of wearing a green hat for the mayor was revealed, and Julian entered the provincial seminary for further study. "Laughter is the stage of hypocrisy", Julian was particularly prominent in the seminary, standing out, and after being recommended to become the secretary of the Marquis of Mul, his life was about to soar.
"In such a society, if you do not get the respect of others, your misfortune is doomed." Under the influence of aristocratic society, Julian learned the laws of high society and became a playboy with a goblet. Soon he was on good terms with a Marquis of Mull, who at first miss martel did not want to see him, but he finally won Miss Martel's jealousy with a little trickery. With a kind word from Miss Martel, Julian received the title of nobleman of the Hussar Lieutenant.
On horseback, he began to imagine the future, and he even calculated when he would succeed based on Napoleon's age. However, when the great trouble came, Madame Rena told Miss Martel about her former relationship with Julian. An enraged Julian impulsively fired two shots at his former lover, Madame Rena. Because of his impulse, all the efforts so far have been burned to the ground. This is the story of The Red and the Black, an excellent anti-aristocratic novel.
Today I would like to introduce a bird with two colors, red and black, which is the helmeted bird.
@rockjumperbirdingtours
Helmeted manakin, Antilophia galeata is a bird of the family Cyprinidae, endemic to the savannah ecosystems of central Brazil and paraguay and northeastern Bolivia. To break down their Latin scientific names, antios means distinctive, lophos means crested, galea means helmet, and together they are distinctive helmet-wearing crested birds.
The helmeted harrier is handsome and elegant, although born ordinary (grass color), but the eyes are bright and bright, and the upward hairstyle means a lofty goal. They are about 13-14.5 cm long and weigh 18 to 26 g, in both male and female forms. Immature males and females are the same as green, but once sexually mature, the males immediately feel like a different person.

The male has a red crown and feathers at the back of the head, with the rest of the head being black. The crown is shaped like a helmet, like a European soldier who rushed to the battlefield before the Middle Ages. As the saying goes, there are only two ways for young people to climb up, red for the army, black for the church, and helmeted harriers and bear paws.

They are so talented that they sing almost all year round, with eight notes, and the songs can be heard from a long distance. They feed on fruit from an early age, and the abundant fruit production in South America makes them worry-free, and occasionally they eat bugs.
"In such a society, if you don't get the respect of others, your misfortune is doomed" So 1-5 months is their moulting period, and males need to work hard for 3 years to grow this characteristic feather and thus enter the high society.
The female is responsible for nesting, the male attracts the female through song, and 1 male will mate with at least 2 females. Females are also not vegetarians, and they can also choose to mate with multiple males. The female lays 2 gray eggs, which usually hatch after 17 days. It's like playboy Julie and Mrs. Anrina getting along and then secretly sending Miss Martel to Autumn Wave.

They believed that, by their own endeavour, they would also try to enter high society, as Napoleon did, "by a lowly and impoverished junior officer, by virtue of the sword he wore, he became the master of the world.". As for the outcome, it depends on their creation.
"The Red and the Black" ends in tragedy and tells us a truth. Rich people can have many opportunities for trial and error in their lives, and people born poor, even if they are gifted, talented, good-looking, and appreciated by nobles, as long as they make a big mistake, there is no place to turn around.
Poor people have no room for trial and error, just like "the cold door is difficult to get out of the noble son".
The helmeted wren could only look into the distance and fly upwards.
