Shot Notes
This is a satin bowerbird in Girard State Forest in New South Wales. The male birds use bits of blue plastic to decorate their courtship area and attract females. This behaviour attacted a biologist Aussies call The Bro aka David Attenborough.
I think this one was eyeing up the blue stripes on the side of my van.
I am now at Armidale State Forest which is full of mountain bike trails where I can recreate the Endor speeder chase with the whirring sound the old motor makes on my solar powered bike.
