what's funny, but also kind of messed up, is that competing male bower birds will go to each others nests and mix the red flowers with the blue and etc… So when the male that built it comes back he's all hectic and OCD being like aaaaah "this isn't right" and will end up tearing everything apart to start over.
*This is true* - they are incredible perfectionists and spend hours picking out very specific and unique details for their intricate bowers. I have watched this full documentary, and honestly it is a wonderfully moving experience as it shows these creatures displaying their natural sensitivity to beauty, symmetry, etc - interpreted in their own way of course (a piece of shiny foil might be “beautiful”) but it is extraordinary to watch. One bower bird loved bits of colored glass and would spend hours flying around to find them, and he would spend long amounts of time positioning every piece of glass just so and changing the glass mosaic if a new piece didn’t seem to match. It is honestly a sort of spiritual experience - watching them create art and beauty in their own worlds to attract love (basically the motivation for all art - we all want love).

There have been many studies done on this bird of paradise. They have found that the arrangements they create and their preferences are learned not inherited. They have observed older birds during the time it takes them to create their bower. Also, there are variations in the architecture of the bower itself: some will trade in the traditional hut you see here for one or two towers, or perhaps a four-walled box. Animal origins of art.
They aren't nests. They are purely build for the aesthetic value. The actual nests are build by the females and the birds do not live in it at any moment. It's incredible. It's art.
+TheAndrealee01 Ikr stupid bird hahhahahah the male was like "oh shit I need to take them off", then it thought "screw it I'm gonna leave it, I ran out of time anyway" LOL
Omg nature is amazing - that was incredible to see how the little birds could build such beautiful nests! I loved the bird that decorated with the most colorful flowers - he has great taste ;)
magnificent 💕 there are more than just the voice or look that you can adore from a bird. It's so sad to think that so many people here who like keeping birds in cages, how could they appreciate the bird's culture??
Damn, the mans built his own house, complete with wall-to-wall carpeting, installed art in front, *and* sings? Sign me up for the Vogelkop Bowerbird dating site.
These are amazing birds. So fascinating. The males are true little engineers as well as colour conscious. Note the vertical support beams in the house structure.
With non-monogamous birds, mating tends to be more of a business transaction than anything. The male demonstrates that he'll yield powerful offspring, the female agrees, they mate, and then they go their separate ways--the female leaving to lay and rear her eggs as a single parent while the male stays behind and repeats the process with more females.
I think 3 seconds is worth for the effort the male bird has put into. Aside having sex, the objective of this bird is to pass on their gene to the next generation.
I've seen a video of one of these birds that live close to humans and they had a bunch of blue bootle tops in their little bachelor pad they actually made it look pretty too
How is anyone disliking this? Birds - good Romance - good Guy gets girl - good Guy keeps a tidy house - good caramel vocal tones of Attenborough - ✅ 👍✔
Sometimes if we stop our busy lives and observe the world around us, we get more than we get from doing what we usually do. I love this short doc cos it taught me some important things about life on earth.
Amazing how that uncalled for fungus was likely the factor that turned the female off the first male and sent her to second guy's bower. I gotta say, some female birds can be VERY choosy.
MuchLOVEwithyou I know 😔I want to meet a man that would be this romantic & want to build a home for me & make it beautiful, it’s so sad I’m more impressed & ready to go off with the bird than the men I’ve met
@@julianarose9872 In human evolution the female partners are the nest builders. You can't compare birds with primates because it's a completely different premise. Don't be so full of yourself - if you want a nice home help create one. Also, this is not a home for the birds but only a sex-den.
Just found out these birds exist and just wow intelligence and the things we consider purely human seems to also be shared with birds from art, to speech, to architecture, to self awareness. I find myself being more and more interested by different species of birds.
Bro is stylish, speaks 4 languages, has a diverse friend group, He loves art and he is a wonderful carpenter. He has a well kept home. He is hopeful and self confident. He i seductive, creative and understands the idea of optics. He is an illusionist and has been studying magic since he was a child. He has respect for his partners and goes above and beyond, doting and planning each date with diligence. He can be coy at times which is rather endearing. His cuddles are genuine and warm. When he feels defeated he reflects and then he tries again.
Bowerbird: “Darling, the colors aren’t here. You have to actually eat the mushrooms to see them.” I can see where the evolution of this species is headed..
For all those saying: "years of work for seconds of pleasure?" you must realize that this happens many times in a day for them right? There is a lot of females out there.
The Bible says this Jeremiah 29:5 “Build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them;” I guess its for God little creations as well ! God bless
Which God exactly? Osiris? Zeus? Mithra? Set? Enki? Enlil? Attis? Ahura Mazda? Dionysus? Krishna? Thor? All of them? None of them? Or is it that one God that happens to be prevalent in the culture and family you happen to live in? Or is God just how you describe that warm and cozy feeling inside? Such an addicting feeling...
So then yours is The One, The Only true God that just so happens to be prevalent in the family and culture in which you were raised. It may be worth acknowledging that the tens of millions of people who believed in all those other gods (and people who believe in other gods today) believed theirs is The One true God just as surely as you believe yours is The One true God. What makes them wrong and you right?

If I stumbled upon this in the forest, I would absolutely think that it's a human-made shrine or something. Amazing!
I never thought of that! That's true.
Who else thought that sprouting fungus was a good visual effect
Think the issue may be the fungus isn't uniform therefore 'imperfect'
I thought so too! But I guess it didn't appeal to the birds

Amazing! Never heard of this extremely interesting bird
For all guys
what would you collect as the bird?
For the girls
Who would you choose because of what they chose?
What Bower Bird species makes the best bowers? I like the use of color in this one. And the moss carpet is an excellent touch.
1) Time and efforts expended on attracting the female: 999,999%
2) Time and efforts expended on Mating: 1%

Thankfully, these bowers are reused by the same birds year after year.
And they keep adding more stuff and enlarging it....
