Well, don't feel too bad for it. It's probably cute as the dickens, after all.

Yes, what a relief--the "penduline" part refers to its nest, which is built to hang from a tree branch, much like an oriole's nest. Here's a nice example.
The bird itself is cute as the dickens; you're right. Even wears a teeny mask, like an avian Lone Ranger.
