CommentPatience was needed to get a clear shot of this male bowerbird as he attended to the decoration of his bower. He came and went often and spent time arranging the green fruits on the stage. He also had a collection of fruits on the ground near the bower, a couple of which he ate. The green fruits on the top of the bower are different from those on the stage.
