Uirapurú is one of the birds whose origin has been devoted to the legends and myths of the indigenous peoples of Brazil.

A magical red bird, a symbol of happiness. It was a young Indian whom the chief cursed because of his love for the latter's daughter. A beautiful song began. The chief heard this and went into the forest to catch the bird, getting lost forever. Irapuru is still singing, hoping that the girl he loves will recognize him.

Whoever finds this bird may have a wish come true.
