[whimsical music] 241
‎这是雄性的职责 Here's the guy responsible. 242
‎冠园丁鸟 MacGregor's bowerbird. 243

‎但没有其他鸟类 能修建更高的东西吸引雌性 but no other bird goes to greater heights to impress the ladies. 245
[thrum of insects] 246

[quirky classical music] 250
‎他很努力地让求偶亭变得 更大更漂亮 He works hard on making it bigger and better. 251

‎但他失去了兴趣 But he's lost the element of surprise. 279
[metallic trill] 280
‎冠园丁鸟回来了 MacGregor is back. 281
‎他开始了维修工作 And he gets on with the repairs. 282
‎他的塔有一米多高 His tower is well over a meter tall. 283
‎这么说可能有点儿俗 ‎但尺寸对雌性园丁鸟很重要 It may be a cliche, but size matters to female bowerbirds. 284
‎一只雄性能保持一个大的塔是拥有良好基因的标志 If a male can build and maintain a large tower, it's a sign of good genes. 285
‎接下来，冠园丁鸟把注意力放在了装饰上 Next, MacGregor turns his attention to the decor. 286
‎每个园丁鸟都有自己的方法 Every bowerbird works in his own medium. 287
‎对冠园丁鸟来说，是用一种粘稠的李子树液 For MacGregor, it's sticky plant sap. 288
‎很好！ Mm. Nice! 289
[insects chirping] 290
‎火焰也在进行装饰，但他更具有实验精神 Flame is decorating, too, but he's more... 291

‎相比较而言 冠园丁鸟，知道自己想要什么 MacGregor, however, knows just what he wants. 293
‎每一个都有特定的位置 And everything has its place. 294
‎现在 这个看起来不错 Now, this has potential. 295
‎但它应该放这儿吗？ But should it go here? 296

‎或者这儿？ Or perhaps here? 298
‎甚至这里？ Or even here? 299
‎完美 Perfect. 300
‎新鲜的装饰物表明这个求偶亭处于正在使用的状态 Fresh decorations show that the bower is in use. 301
‎亭子越好看越能吸引雌性 And the fancier it is, the more likely it'll impress a female. 302
‎他已经挂了上百件装饰了 He's hung hundreds of baubles already. 303
‎但显然 这个阶段 But apparently, there's a point 304
‎装饰物有点儿太多了 when there's just one too many. 305
‎为了与他的棕色配色方案一致 In keeping with his brown color scheme, 306
‎冠园丁鸟希望风干的花能增添几分吸引力 MacGregor is hoping dead flowers will be an added attraction. 307
‎装饰物往往就地取材 Decor is often down to local fashion. 308
‎在这个山谷 蓝色是主流 In this valley, blue is the thing. 309
‎所以这些梅子会让亭子脱颖而出吗？ So will these berries catch the eye? 310
[snorting] 311
‎冠园丁鸟的家又来了一位不受欢迎的客人 There's another unwelcome guest at MacGregor's. 312
[snuffling and snorting] 313
‎这可能会很糟 This could be bad. 314

‎猪不喜欢狗 Pigs don't like dogs. 325

-[bark-like sound] -[pig stops grunting] 328
[barking continues] 329
-[pig snorting] -[barking continues] 330

[fluttering and crowing] 438
‎在求偶场 At the lek, 439
‎每一只雄性都有自己跳舞的区域 every male has his own dancing area. 440
‎雄性的数量越多 And the more males there are, 441
‎雌性出现的可能性越大 the more likely females will visit. 442
[music fades] 443
[thrum of tropical insects] 444
‎团队协作对一些在巴拿马的表演者 更为重要 Teamwork is even more important for some performers in Panama. 445
‎这是一只尖尾侏儒鸟的 This is the dancing perch 446
‎跳舞点 of a male lance-tailed manakin. 447
‎但想要吸引一只雌性 But to attract a female, 448
‎一只雄性是做不到的 one manakin just won't cut it. 449
[rapid chirping] 450
‎所以他有一个僚机 So... he has a wingman. 451
[low rhythmic calling] 452
[jazz intro] 453
‎这些侏儒鸟是一个长达21年研究的一部分 The manakins here are part of a 21-year study, 454
‎这一对已经在一起工作5年了 and this pair has worked together for five years. 455
[shrill twittering] 456
[jazz continues] 457
‎他们像一台运转良好的机器 They're a well-oiled machine. 458

[music ends] 460
‎彩排结束 Rehearsal over, 461
‎这一对开始寻找伴侣 the pair go in search of a mate. 462
[melodic chirrups] 463
‎他们用二重唱表示自己准备好了 They advertise their readiness with a duet. 464
[melodic chirruping] 465
‎他们的叫声得到了回应 And their calls have been answered. 466
‎现在他们通过轮回飞行向她展示舞台 Now, they show her their stage with a round of flybys. 467
[jazz music starts up] 468
‎目前为止 一切顺利 So far, so good. 469
‎但 他们的表演会命中目标吗？ But will their routine hit the mark? 470
[males chirrup rhythmically] 471
‎如果中了，只有大哥才会进行配对 If it does, only the alpha will mate. 472
‎僚机只是在那 The wingman's only here 473
‎让他的大哥看起来不错 to make his boss look good. 474
[chirruping continues] 475
‎但 在决定之前 But, before deciding, 476
‎雌性侏儒鸟总是会比较他们 female manakins always check out the competition. 477
[music climaxes] 478
‎啊 可惜！ Oh, shame! 479
[rising squeaky call] 480
‎在动冠伞鸟的求偶场 At the cock-of-the-rock lek, 481
‎裁判们已准备就绪 the judges are taking their seats. 482
[chorus of crowing] 483
‎这让这群雄性变得兴奋 It's got the posse excited again. 484

‎恢复秩序 每个都在自己的位置上 Order restored, each takes his position. 487

[squawking] 489
[psychedelic music continues] 490
‎她们会对他们的尾部进行评判 They'll be judged on their rear ends. 491
[Hammond organ plays] 492
‎需要经过训练的眼睛，才能找到最漂亮的尾部 It takes a trained eye to spot the prettiest bottom. 493
‎但比赛还有更多内容 But there's more to the contest than that. 494
[high-pitched chirrups] 495
‎等着 Wait for it... 496
‎恩 这并不是什么天鹅湖 Yeah, okay, it's not exactly Swan Lake, 497
‎但足以让最终选择变得容易了 but it's enough to make the final choice easier. 498
[Hammond organ plays] 499
‎但这只雄性在近距离的情况下，有没有令她们印象深刻呢？ But is this male as impressive... up close? 500
‎他必须不停地跳 直到得到肯定 He must keep hopping until he gets the okay. 501
[squawking] 502
‎不是每只鸟都对此感到高兴 Not everyone's best pleased about that. 503
‎但比赛还没结束 But the competition isn't over yet. 504
‎还有赢得其他雌性的可能 There are still other females to win over, 505
‎所以他们必须不停地跳 so they must keep hopping. 506
[psychedelic music continues] 507
‎但下一个雌性的选择 But when the next female chooses... 508
[Hammond organ] 509
‎是同一只鸟 it's the same guy! 510
‎研究表示在求偶场 Research has shown that most matings 511
‎发生的大部分交配都来自同一只鸟 at a lek are with one male. 512
[multiple squawks] 513
[hoots] 514
‎但只有雌性知道 But only the females know 515
‎什么是他有而其他鸟没有的 what he has that the others don't. 516
‎但是 在最后一只雌性做出选择前，总是有希望的 Still, until the last female's gone, there's always hope. 517
[music fades out] 518
‎侏儒鸟的顶尖队伍也富有希望 The manakin A-team are hopeful, too. 519
‎这只雌性回来了 The female's back. 520
[excitable warbling] 521
‎这两个伙计 ‎从上次结束的地方开始表演 And the duo picks up where they left off. 522
[lively big band music] 523
[chirruping and hooting] 524
‎但最后的表演，是单独表演 But the final act... is a solo. 525
[lively music continues] 526
‎所以当需要独自表演的时候 So, when it's time to go it alone, 527
‎大哥会用叫声让他的僚机离开 the alpha calls at his wingman to leave. 528
[whistles] 529
‎在这个研究中，去年 这只雄性是最成功的 Last year, this male was the most successful in the study. 530
‎但他不能停止舞蹈 But he can't afford to relax. 531
‎研究显示 年长的雌性 比如这只 Research has shown that older females, like this one, 532
‎会让有经验的雄性，为获得爱情 付出更努力 make experienced males work harder for their affections. 533
‎所以他的每一个舞步都要，足够绚丽 So he must dazzle her with each of his dance moves. 534
‎现在是整个表演的高潮部分 Now comes the highlight of the whole performance. 535
‎像打鼓一样 Cue drumroll... 536
[drumroll] 537
[lively music continues] 538
‎栖息枝反弹 The perch bounces. 539
‎她喜欢这些 She likes them! 540
‎剩下的就是鞠躬 All that's left is to bow... 541
‎和交配 and mate. 542
‎僚机只能观看 The wingman can only look on. 543
‎或许下一年 他可以成为上面那只 Perhaps next year, he'll be on top. 544
[music crescendos] 545

‎让我们回到新几内亚 Back in New Guinea, 547

[chorus of chirruping] 549
‎完美的舞台 the perfect arena, 550
‎最多样的舞蹈节目 the most varied dance routine, 551
‎他靠自己完成了所有 and he does it all by himself. 552
‎可以说他是最伟大的表演者 You could say... he's the greatest showman. 553
‎最伟大的表演家 554
‎这是一个个人的展示场 This is his personal display court. 555
‎他是一只风鸟 He's a bird of paradise, 556
‎一只白胁六线风鸟 -[high-pitched squawk] -a Carola's parotia, 557
‎他的名字叫鲍勃 and his name's Bob. 558
‎鲍勃痴迷于追求整洁 Bob is obsessed with tidiness. 559
‎这是至关重要的家务 But it's vital housework. 560
‎雌性白胁六线风鸟，不会造访凌乱的展示场 Female Carolas don't visit messy display courts. 561
[pinging] 562
‎每一片叶子都要挪走 Every leaf must go. 563
‎完美 Perfect. 564
‎但鲍勃的工作还没有结束 But Bob's jobs are not done. 565
‎还有其他的工作要做 There's other groundwork to do. 566
‎他的舞台布满了苔藓 His arena is carpeted with moss. 567
‎还有几个区域要整理 And there are a few areas to attend to. 568
‎很好！ Splendid! 569
‎家务结束 鲍勃舒展自己的身体 Chores finished, Bob limbers up. 570
‎白胁六线风鸟会花更多的时间 进行彩排工作 Carolas spend more time rehearsing their displays 571
相比其他风鸟 than any other bird of paradise. 572
[whimsical music] 573
‎芭蕾舞只是 九个精心编排的动作中的一个 The ballerina is just one of nine carefully choreographed moves. 574
‎每一个动作都要完全按照顺序进行 And each will have to be done in exactly the right order, 575
‎这让这种舞蹈 ‎成为鸟类中最复杂的舞蹈 making it the most complex dance of any bird. 576
‎即便是动作中间的停顿 都对表演至关重要 Even the pauses between moves are important to the routine. 577
‎这不仅仅关乎他做了什么，还在于他在哪里 And it's not just what he does but where. 578
‎在他的栖息枝下方跳舞是十分重要的 Dancing under his perch is crucial, 579
‎因为从这里 雌性可以观看他的表演 as it's from here a female will view his performance. 580
‎但就算是最认真的舞者，也会因练习而感到疲倦 But even the most serious dancer can tire of practicing. 581
‎特别是在没有观众的时候 Particularly when no one's even watching. 582
[raspy call] 583
‎所以 午餐时间 -So, it's off to lunch. -[chirrups] 584
‎鲍勃飞走后 With Bob gone, 585
‎其他鸟趁虚而入 others slide in. 586
[chirrups shrilly] 587
‎一只雄性幼鸟 A juvenile male 588
‎还有他的雄性幼鸟伙伴 and his equally juvenile male friend. 589
[warbling] 590
‎总有一天，他们会有自己的场地 One day,they'll both have their own courts 591
‎但在那之前，他们必须抓住每一次练习的机会 but until then, they must seize every chance to practice. 592
[metallic raspy call] 593
‎有同伴的情况下，可以进行角色扮演 With two, they can role-play. 594
‎一个舞者 A dancer... 595
‎一个雌性评判家 and a judging female. 596
‎但 时间到了 But time's up. 597
[Bob squawks] 598
‎鲍勃回来了 Bob's back. 599
‎这只幼鸟想再逗留一会儿 This youngster wants to stick around 600
‎向专业的鸟学习 and learn from an expert. 601
‎但玩耍时间结束了 But playtime is over. 602
[romantic music] 603
‎很快 And not a moment too soon. 604
‎一只雌性白胁六线风鸟 A female Carola. 605
‎但她并不是在寻找爱情 But she's not looking for love. 606
‎她在找筑巢材料 She's after nest material. 607
‎最好赶走她 Best get rid of her. 608
[raspy chirrup] 609
‎当你是一只白胁六线风鸟时 When you're a Carola's parotia, 610
‎没有休息的时间 there's no such thing as downtime. 611
‎鲍勃知道 想要成功，表演就要毫无差池 To succeed, Bob knows his routine must be faultless. 612
‎所以 他练习 练习 练习 So it's practice, practice, practice. 613
‎啊哈！另一只雌性 Aha! Another female! 614
[chirps] 615
‎这只看起来对他感兴趣 This one seems interested in him, 616
‎所以 表演时间 so it's showtime. 617
[whimsical music] 618
‎鲍勃从栖息枝开始 Bob opens with a perch pivot, 619
‎这是他九个动作的第一个动作 the first of his nine moves. 620
‎1 621
[raspy chirrup] 622
‎当雌性靠近，就是开始第二个动作的时候 With the female getting closer, it's time for move two. 623
‎2 624
‎原地起跳 The court hops. 625
‎然后机智地过渡到第三个动作 Then smartly onto move three, 626
‎摇摆弹跳 the swaying bounce. 627
‎3 628
‎长满苔藓的地毯有助于鲍勃将双脚牢牢固定在地面上 The mossy carpet helps keep Bob's feet firmly on the ground. 629
‎但他需要她站到他的栖息枝上 But he needs her on his perch. 630
‎好的！ Yes! 631
‎但那是什么？ But what's this? 632
‎又来一个？ A plus-one? 633
‎那是另一只成年雄性 -[squawks shrilly] -It's another adult male. 634
‎他可能是个麻烦，但鲍勃必须坚持下去 He could prove trouble but Bob must press on. 635
‎白胁六线风鸟的表演，可以持续好几个小时 A Carola display could last hours. 636
‎但耐力是有限的 And there are points for stamina. 637
[raspy trilling] 638
‎第二只雄性的到来更让他担心 The arrival of a second male is more worrying. 639
[squawks excitedly] 640
‎突然间鲍勃被对手包围了 Suddenly, Bob's surrounded by rivals, 641
‎他们想破坏鲍勃的约会 here to break up his date. 642
‎如果他现在不能集中精力，她可能会去拜访别的鸟的场地 If he loses focus now, she may visit one of their courts instead. 643
[males squawking excitedly] 644
‎而他还有很多要做 And he's still got a lot to get through. 645
‎接下来 动作四 Next, move four. 646
‎4 647
‎转头 The head tilts. 648
[raucous chorus of squawking males] 649
‎但噪音很让他分心 But all that noise is just too distracting. 650
[cacophony of squawking] 651
‎他必须让他们知道谁才是老大 He must show them who's boss. 652
‎这片树叶可能就是答案 And this bit of leaf could be the answer. 653
‎这是所有权的勋章 是白胁六线风鸟说 It's a badge of ownership, a Carola's way of saying: 654
‎“这是我的场地 一边去”的方式 "This is my court. Get lost." 655
[squawking fades] 656
‎很奇怪 It's odd... 657
‎但有用 but it works. 658
‎但是现在 事情有些不对 But now, something's wrong. 659
‎她失去了兴趣吗？ Has she lost interest, 660
‎或者他尝试在错误的方向向她求爱？ or is he trying to woo her at the wrong end of the perch? 661
‎幸运的是 Fortunately, 662
‎鲍勃想起来雌性白胁六线风鸟 Bob's remembered that female Carolas 663
‎喜欢居高临下观看她们的潜在伴侣 like to look down on their would-be partners. 664
‎所以 继续跳舞，第二轮原地起跳 So it's back to business, and the second round of court hops. 665
‎动作五 Move five. 666
‎现在是下一个动作 Now on to the next move: 667
‎起跳和抖动 the hop and shake. 668
‎动作六 Number six, 669
‎他会把羽毛弄松，向前方移动 where he'll fluff his feathers, shuffle forward, 670
‎把头放在翅膀下 and stick his head under his wing. 671
‎疏松 向前 翅膀 Fluff, shuffle, wing. 672
‎疏松 Fluff... 673
‎向前 翅膀 shuffle... 674
wing. 675
‎从上方看依然很好 Still looking good above. 676
‎所以是第七 八 九个动作的时候了 So it's time for moves seven, eight and nine. 677
‎低头 芭蕾舞步和点头 The bow, ballerina and head bobs, 678
‎这些动作让他成为了 他们中最精致的舞者 the moves that mark him out as surely the finest dancer of them all. 679
‎收下这些赞赏吧 鲍勃！ Take it away, Bob! 680
