@@julzyboy8960 that doesn't make sense to call it stupid, at any time it would be more beneficial to the bird for a female to come, even if it is for practicing purposes. The fact that he spent energy on display means it would be for the purpose of attracting a female, which he did not do. Just like a failed attempt at asking someone out may be looked at as practice, it is still a failed attempt.

Man the pun: the birds face or the profile picture Dwight?
Loving the gold sequinned bow tie. But the iridescent blue smiley face was just a wee bit too creepy...
I was fortunate to see a very few times the bird of paradise Male as well as female way back in 1985 at Trichy in my BHEL factory road which is almost like a forest area.The Male had a few very long tail feathers hanging down more than a meter as it flew from branch to branch and across the road.As I was riding the scooter the paradise bird flew in front of me with it with its overly long lovely tail feathers.It was a heavenly sight .Which was why I think it is called the bird of paradise.Compared to Male,the female was not having remarkable feathers.Just a commonplace female of smaller size.I could see the male and female for 1/2 dozen times.Thereafter they just vanished.I didn’t sight the birds tIll I left Trichy in 2007. Birds of paradise come in many Colors and shades but they belong to an unique species.
