The "Flame Bowerbird" has to be my all time favorite. Between it's intricately built and decorated nest, it's subtle wing movements and it's courtship mode eyes, I was just mesmerized watching this amazing footage! The videographer skills were off the charts on this one!

24.47 the bird actually looks like it's sighing after his lady left when the performance was interrupted...and David perfectly comments sometimes things don't work out 💔 but also 😂

Everytime I watch one of these documentaries with David I am filled with a sense of dread.... he's getting so old... what are we going to do when he leaves us? He's the world's best grandpa!

Stunning all of it ! David and the camera work !? Just amazingly good!! We all know the amount of time those cameramen spend waiting watching the applause for them should be deafening !

Hi! How are you?

Korea/Seoul has entered full-fledged winter since the 29th of last month.
Temperatures around minus 10'C and snow are falling all over the country.
It's already Friday this week. I hope you have good health and good things today, weekends, and holidays.

Thank you very much.

The orange Bower bird made me so sad lol he did all of that work. And the female was loving it 😍 Then that little A hole of a bird at 24:19 came over like "what's up" and ruined it all 😂 He looked so defeated. He even deep sighed at the end 😂 24:42 lol poor guy.

I love watching your videos, it keeps me entertained every day, watching animals hunt, fight, compete with each other.
