Hello, colleagues!
I would like to share an interesting YouTube channel dedicated to the Great Bowerbird (Chlamydera nuchalis), one of the most fascinating bird species. The channel @bowerbirdoz features videos that provide detailed insights into the behaviour of these birds, their courtship rituals, and the intricacies of bower construction.
What you can find on the channel:

In-depth observations of the Great Bowerbird in its natural habitat.

Explanations of the mechanisms of sexual selection and behavioural evolution.

Interesting facts about the interactions between bowerbirds and their environment.

If you are interested in ornithology and bird behaviour, I invite you to explore the channel’s content!

I would be happy to discuss and exchange ideas on this topic!
