This post is for all of the women out there that have a tough time convincing their husbands\/boyfriends to renovate the house. I want you to go and wake them up from their nap so they can read about the Bowerbird with you.\u00a0 I know they will be grumpy but trust me it will be worth it.\u00a0 Before we get into the details of their unique mating behaviour I guess I will tell you a little about this bird.<\/p>\n

The Bowerbird is a medium-sized passerine bird, which doesn’t help since more than half the birds in the world are passerine birds. This particular type though can be found around New Guinea and Australia.\u00a0 As I alluded to the Bowerbird is best known for their unique mating behaviour so lets take the rest of the fact to explore this, sound good?<\/p>\n

The male Bowerbird is the ultimate bachelor and should probably try out for a certain reality show. Come on what does Pilot Jake have that a male Bowerbird doesn’t, they can both fly! I am just not sure that this male bird would be able to live in such a hum-drum mansion during the taping.\u00a0 You see the houses they build are much more extravagant.\u00a0 That’s right, the Bowerbird is often called the “Avian Architect” since they build a lavish bachelor pad called a “Bower”.\u00a0 They use twigs, moss and leaves to construct the nest but then decorate it with shiny baubles, berries, feathers, shells, and anything else they can find.\u00a0 These beautifully built bowers are not at all like the nice house in the country with the white picket fence that is perfect for raising a family. No, they are more like the Penthouse suite in downtown New York. They are the ultimate bachelor pad designed to attract as many females as possible.<\/p>\n

The Ultimate Bachelor "Bower" <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Once an interested female bowerbird arrives to check out the finely constructed nest the male will begin to strut and sing hoping to convince her to stick around for a little bit.\u00a0 You know, it is eerie how similar the bowerbird is to the human bachelor. I just picture the male “dumb-dancing” while trying out cheesy pick up lines on the potential mate.\u00a0 After mating the female will fly off and build a nest close by while the male will work on convincing another female into his sweet bachelor pad.\u00a0 You know, I am starting to think that it may not have been a good idea to wake up your husbands\/boyfriends for this Wild Fact.\u00a0 Sorry ladies, my bad!<\/p>\n

Well folks I am off to collect some shells and feathers for my home.\u00a0 I will check back in with you a little later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
