A Male Victoria Rifle Bird Failed To Impress A Female

This perky bird is named after Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom. It is mostly found in North East Australia, which is Queensland region.

In this video which has amazed the online community is taken in Atherton Tableland.

The video was captured by Ray & Sue, travelers and wildlife lovers.

Their imagery is breathtaking and unique.

The male bird tries to impress its potential mate with a flamboyant dance.

The dance is almost similar to flamenco.

But eventually the male fails to impress the female as she leaves.

Hopefully the male finds a suitable mate and happily lives thereafter.
