    The answer the second option: I chose that bird for its bright coloring.

    Explanation:

    In the sentence "I chose that bird for its bright coloring", we have a demonstrative pronoun.

    Demonstrative pronouns are words used to indicate items in space or time. They can be singular or plural: this, these, that, and those.

    As we know, pronouns are used to refer to nouns by substituting them. However, they function as adjectives in case they accompany a noun. In that case, they are modifying that noun. That's exactly what happens in the sentence:

    - I chose that bird for its bright coloring.

    The demonstrative pronoun "that" is functioning as an adjective since it is modifying the noun "bird": it's not any bird, it is that bird.
