Express yourself. As for the outcome, that's an entirely different matter.#wildlife #animals

Living in such dense vegetation, it's difficult to make yourself seen, even when you want to be. And that's a problem for this male chemapan. He has lived most of his life alone. And this is his first mating season.

He needs to make himself conspicuous in the gloom of the forest floor, and he's found a clearing where he might do so. A female. She too is looking for a mate. This could be his moment. Oh dear. Stage fright.

And [music] who is this? A male golden pheasant. He too has come to this clearing to attract a female and he seems a little more confident. So that is how it's done. The Draan might still have a chance.

Here is a new female. But is she interested? It's time to be bold. He pumps up a pair of horns and a multicolored bib. It's a sight to be wondered at, and it has never before been filmed in the wild. Not today. How deflating.
