@myriahblue We have a lot of them here and I spread blue things out in the grass of the lawn for them to take. The preferred blue colour is very similar to the iris-blue colour of the Satin Bowerbird's eye. I think that has some relation.

I think he is a secret fly tipper.

Just love these birds. They spend years and years building their home and the end result is a 10 second mating session as the female raises her chicks by herself. I love the way the male decoratess his home by colour.
