The riflebirds of Queensland's Wooroonooran National Park are truly a sight to behold. The adult male Victoria's Riflebird puts on an extravagant display in the hopes of attracting a mate. With wings spread wide, it claps them over its head and dances with wild abandon. Picture No. 11066700 captures this breathtaking moment, showcasing the bird's vibrant plumage and graceful movements. In Picture No. 11806911, we see another stunning shot of the adult male displaying on a post in Atherton Tableland. Its call echoes through the forest as it tries to capture the attention of females nearby. But it's not just about the males showing off their moves; Picture No. 11066699 depicts an adult pair, with the male displaying his charms to his female companion perched beside him on a display post. Meanwhile, across Queensland gardens, even cheese becomes irresistible for these magnificent creatures. In Picture No. 11066796, an adult female Magnificent Riflebird can be seen feeding on lumps of cheese at a birdtable—a delightful scene that showcases their adaptability and unique tastes. Taking us back in time is Paradise riflebirds' artwork from the 19th century (C013 / 6426). These illustrations remind us of how long these birds have captivated human imagination with their beauty and allure. Returning to present-day Atherton Tableland is Picture No. 11066699—Victoria's Riflebird once again steals our attention as an adult male feeds at a birdtable while displaying his striking plumage for all to admire. And finally, in another captivating image (Picture No. 11066796), we witness an adult female Victoria's Riflebird enjoying her meal at a birdtable while her suitor displays proudly in the background—an enchanting glimpse into their daily lives. These riflebirds truly embody nature's artistry and serve as reminders of both our planet's incredible biodiversity and the wonders that can be found in our own backyards.
