Feathered Polygamists: Love, Marriages, Infidelity, and Divorce in the World of Birds

 Feathered Polygamists provides a narrative of the birds’ behaviour in relation to all aspects of their breeding - courtship rituals, singing, mating, infidelity and divorce.
Using examples of species from different systematic groups of birds on all continents, the various forms of mating - monogamy and polygamy, colonial and cooperative breeding are described here. The book is about demonstrative behaviour, courtship rituals of birds and tournaments.
