OooOOooh yieaaaaaaaahhhh i think she dig it man !! do your thang my lil feathered friend.

[KhmerSerey1]

Show off !! hahhaaaaah

[Flighn]

I wish humans were like this. Just dress nicely, dance around and sing, and the chicks start rolling in.

[Keishiron123456789]

and then u fk a tuft of moss

[limbdarkening]

@Flighn And occasionally mate with a tuft of moss.

[biologyfuckyeah]

@Flighn

actually, it kinda works like this

but you gotta be famous too for optimum results

[torquewip]

@Flighn happens a lot in las vegas and san francisco

[limbdarkening]

@Flighn Yeah, most human men are just slobs.

[CammehYaBams]

@limbdarkening Hey! Men have feelings too.

[KidsWithGuns1992]

@Flighn Look at all the big time famous musicians, The Beatles for example, I think this does apply to humans somewhat.

[OwnNewWay]

so hot.

[ultrakool]

sucks to be a tuft of moss. mind your own business and you wake up with a wet ass

[napethaneteoulloi]

David Attenborough you are an image with all respect.. i admire you more than anything else on this planet.. you have the best way to discribe things and transmmit them to us in a way that keeps us in interest.. thank you for everything and i hope you will always be strong enough to continue do what you do.. thank you.!!

[faraong]

oooh bird porn

[0dour]

"stop wobbling my branch you cunt!!"

[19weewee84]

hello thank u for answering..its a great new idea..

[19weewee84]

hey can anybody answer me? why is it that male are more beautiful than female..the female flumage are boring and dusky??

[Heimzz]

This is because the males are the onces to attract the females to mate with them, not the other way around. It's called sexual dimorphsism. In some rare specis of birds it's the other way around, the female it flashy and the male is dull.

[jedamm]

Also that females tend to guard eggs more than males, I think, so they have to blend in.

[redkat123]

so basicly boys pretty girls not girls need to survive girls no

[jedamm]

yeah, its funny if you think about it. humans are about the only animals where females get all did up to attract males. that's patriarchy for you.

[RussellsParadox]

Could it be that the female body is such that there are simply more parts available to double-up as ornaments?

[ultrakool]

yeah, but then it turns into a lifetime of matriarchy, ha ha

[bizzywelsh]

"and he's so worked up he trys to mate with a tuft of moss" hahaha

[TobiK2006]

Not just Newcastle - go to every nightclub on the world on a saturday night and you will see surprisingly similar behaviour...

[allteesup1]

Take it you've never been out in Newcastle on Saturday night then jolarti.

[jolarti]

I wonder what this world would be like if human males would go out on the street and yell: "hello-o! I'm ready to mate. Anyone? hello? hello...!"

[Tallacus]

that bird is awesome, love the tail feathers

[leeoc07]

lol he tries to screw a moth the horny bastard !

(1.52)

[Kittyrins]

Moss...not a moth.

[DeusMortemEst]

Splendid.

[nikorey27]

Bird sex is so dissapointing all that preparation for only a few seconds of glory..

[Tallacus]

its short and to the point, same thing with dragons

[hippocampuszosterae]

dragons...?

[SpaceCarnivora]

disappointing from a human point of view, you can never look at the natural world and compare everything to human prediction and expectation. Everything is there for a very specific reason.

[daBROWNGUY1985]

what an odd bird, pretty cool too :)

[weirdoalisa]

dude, and human girls complain about one minute men.. that was like 3 seconds!

[durante888]

He ain't ever calling that hoe back!
