| Resumen: |
FORGET ANY NOTION THAT COURTING IN THE ANIMAL WORLD IS MERELY PURSUIT AND CONQUEST. UNDER ANTHROPOLOGIST SIR DAVID ATTENBOROUGH'S WATCHFUL EYE, THIS NATURAL RITUAL IS SUBTLE, VARIED AND QUITE ASTOUNDING. HEAR THE SONG OF THE ENGLISH NIGHTINGALE AS HE SERENADES HIS SWEETHEART OR THE MELODIC MIMICRY OF THE AUSTRALIAN LYREBIRD. WATCH AS HAMSTERS, MOOSE AND EVEN BATS SEND OUT POTENTLY PERFUMED MESSAGES. MARVEL AT THE PLUMAGE DISPLAYS OF PEACOCKS AND RIFLE BIRDS. TAKE IN THE DANCE STYLINGS OF TRINIDAD'S SPUNKY MANNIKAN BIRDS WITH THEIR DISTINCTIVE SHUFFLES, FLIPS, JUMPS AND LOOP-THE-LOOPS. AND SPY ON THE FANCY EXERTIONS OF THE BOWERBIRD THAT CREATES ENIGMATIC OBJETS D'ART TO ATTRACT HIS DESIGN-CONSCIOUS MATE. |
