From my friend, John Bullock:
These from our son in Oz [Australia]. He relates that there are two females fighting over the single male. They’ve had a nest in the nature preserve behind his house for several years. The Regent Bowerbird is really stunning compared to these Satin Bowerbirds, and more rare. We’ve seen them at one of his friend’s property out in the bush, raiding the blueberry crop, and we’ve found the bowers, but never been able to observe the mating display.
