Marvelous!


Hey guys, the bird diversity in the Andes and Amazon is the highest on the planet.  One of the most interesting birds in the Andes is the Marvelous Spatuletail, a hummingbird.  Check out what sexual selection has wrought.  One of nature's wonders, the mating display has been filmed for the first time.  Enjoy!
