Grub's up for young Great Bowerbird
Grub's up for juvenile Great Bowerbird (top), being fed, as usual by Mum (above).
As usual because the Old Man's too busy rejigging bower and its attractions.
And showing off not merely nape (nuchal) crest (not visible above) but adding to it with head colour. So he's far to busy to have anything to do with nests or raising young.
Perhaps in 5-6 years the juvenile, if male, will also be busy at a bower.
