The bird derives its name from its long crest feathers, which stick out from the back of its head somewhat like the quill pens that office workers once carried behind their ears.

Red fruits, lemme see: acai berries, apples, cherries, cranberries, goji berries, pomegranates, raspberries, red currants, tomatoes, there's gotta be more but how's that for a start?

Gerald Ford: the wording "was shot" sounds like he was actually hit but he wasn't, I remember those two attempts on his life

Moonbows: I Googled some more, a couple of articles said that the Victoria Falls moonbows have either disappeared or been diminished either due to, one site said forest cultivation or another one said an earthquake and air pollution, but some sites say they're still visible. Also moonbows are reported visible in Yosemite National Park, but they said Cumberland and (formerly?) Vic Falls were the only places where you could see them every time there was a full moon.

What athletes have won gold medals in two different Olympics held in the same country (I'm sure of two but there may be more)?

Nope, I'm talking about specific individuals, two I know of or possibly more, who competed in two different Olympics *that were held in the same country* and won one or more gold medals each time. Hint: there are only three times that the same country hosted two summer or two winter Olympics less than 20 years apart
