That precious bird puts on quite a show, with the movements of his tail feathers. The activation of the feathers changes his whole being. In his mating demonstration. he seems to go from everyday bird, to a living supernatural bird being, quite a dance.

I am really glad that conservation, spurred by indignation toward the senseless loss of fellow creatures and/or compassion, to realize the tragedy of losing them (by extinction caused by humans, for frivolous purposes) and has enabled this bird and other animal populations to continue.

Fascinating article.
