Love language, bird edition 🪶   This wing display is a key part of the paradise riflebird’s courtship behaviour. By spreading his wings and subtly shifting his body, the male uses the iridescence of his feathers to catch the light and stand out. Females observe these displays closely before choosing a mate.   #EarthCapture by markus.gebhard.89. . . . . #ParadiseRiflebird #BirdsPhotography #MatingRituals
