Bowerbirds

• These medium-sized birds are found in the northern part of Austraila and New Guinea. The males build nests called bowers to attract mates. The bowerbird male uses sticks and twigs to form a small hut or maypole. He then places brightly colored feathers, shells, discarded pieces of plastic and glass objects around the hut. They are also known to steal objects from neighboring bowers to have the best nest and attract the most mates.

Black Kites
