What female want and male will do
April 18, 2008“What female want and male will do” -that’s a title of a 2 part program from Nature/PBS about the most complex sexual behaviours of animals. I flipped through TV channels yesterday night and stopped by accident on this program (part I). I was fascinated with the topic and complexity of nature. Check the program listing and watch it- it’s funny.

They showed was many interesting scientific details about how animals behave and how their bodies’ structure help them mate or how it may make it more difficult..
Because of my interests in dance and movement I was enchanted by the Riflebird’s dance. In case of that kind of bird the male has to performing a special dance to get the female. (Humans do that too but in a different way I think, not by “dance” but by presenting other things…)
Here is a video of Rifle Bird I found on you tube:
