"Padre modelo" ja ja ja!

[Cronopioslover274]

What a jerk birdie! (He is a cheater! cheated on his wife, had babies birds with his mistress and left her alone to move back with wife) LOL!

[ikutsu2001]

The Tiger Woods of the wild -_-

[Cronopioslover274]

@waya121 Read Mel Ferrer marriages history too. He is now in Heaven, my respect for him, but this bird male makes me remember him.

[doomdart]

lamo. that chick got played like a violin

[EmilieMarieLykkeDuus]

It's actually very instructive. I learned a lot from this video, about The Pied Flypatcher. Poor youngs. I'm wondering, why the male only choose one of the females and her youngs, to be in his family.

[engieDude]

It's good to be a male.

[meEnLiEw]

omg that cheater!!! even wildlife animal cheats!!! hehe at least he cares for one of his family...

[Varda87]

[Acetactular]

The Pied Flycatcher, nature's playyyyyyaaaaaaa =]

[cutefappy]

ugh.... just the thought of a man ever doing that to a woman makes me cringe, well we all have our faults, this video is very reflective of the human species too in which case is a very very very very sad reality

[waya121]

I've learned that cheating is beneficial.

They are created for us, to be our friends and to praise His glory.

[knightdrako]

[gerapic25]

he has a wife a mistress just like us this is funny like shit...

[gretalobo]

It's all a joke. Why doesn't he go for three? Isn't he just making sure the species survives?

[p0lar0id]

What's the purpose of having a mistress and extra chicks for the male?

[VoidMaid]

Every chick he fathers that reaches reproductive maturity increases the chances that his DNA will be passed down to future generations.

[stephjuhler999]

p0lar0id : The purpose of having a mistress is so he can have more sex. The chicks are just the bi-product of his lust they serve no purpose to him.

[robaralis]

they serve him just as much purpose as the first nest. I don't think the male sits and feels any gratification from his actions. its all instinct

[fatkasuvayu]

actually the purpose is to ensure more of his genes pass on to the next generation. in this case, two families with the effort of one.

[stephjuhler999]

I don't think a bird really understands the concept of "genes" and "next generation." Birds act according to their instincts.

[fatkasuvayu]

That's the whole point! evolution doesn't need the bird/animal/even us to understand anything. We have evolved such that our activities are governed by favourable genetic results.

[stephjuhler999]

That's nature's motivation, but not the male bird's.

[WKaliber1]

I got a bit hard watching this

[WKaliber1]

I also sing for sex but it doesnt work.

[Cronopioslover274]

@WKaliber1 Try a nice bath and dress up, brush your teeth, eat apples, good parfum and sing again. Hope this helps you. LOL!

[thpt]

What the... "Mistress"? "Wife"? Anthropmorphism mixing morality and judgement onto BIRDS? Imagining some controversy to garner eyeballs, are you? Come on now, I expected better from the Beeb.

[SAsgarters]

Modern forestry has reduced the number of suitable nest trees, so without the box nests, they would be much less common.

[ticobassie]

I always wonder if Creationists, who like to speak of the Beauty of God's nature, skip these 'immorality in nature' videos.

Cognitive dissonance, I say.

[conejolua]

thanks friend for this beautiful video

a warm greeting

Raul ...

[HouseOldSkoolRaver]

[princessannikki]

[JoeFielding72]
