Spotted Bowerbird's Bower

[Bobj]

The neighbours cut down their hedge to reveal the local celebrity's bower, under a red hibiscus bush.

Nice find Bob. All the ones I've seen in Qld had blue decorations scattered around the bower; the local Satin Bower birds seem to use only blue in their efforts to attract the female.

When we have managed to look closer at the male and female birds through the bino’s, even their eyes were a blue colour!

And the spotted bowerbird does not like blue and discards any blue object put on their display area.

Hi Bob

I now get it! :thumbsup:

I read your heading as “I have spotted a Bowerbird's bower” rather than a bower belonging to a Spotted Bowerbird!:lol::lol:

Quite a collection he has there. Thanks for posting it Bob must say I haven't seen a bower revealed before I found it very interesting.
