User's notes
A young male trying to impress. I sometime carry a blue bottle cap. He quickly retrived it and danced round his female vistor carrying it, nb=but she was not impressed and flew off. A second female was feeding in a nearby ree. The younng male had not yet built a bower and this was his first blue object. He too, soon flew off leaving the bottle cap behind.
