I'm not sure if he wants to watch the birds or eat them
Love in the Animal Kingdom presented by Nature
Plot: While all animals need to get together to produce a new generation. However, some take extra care and consideration when choosing potential mates. Some consider elaborate dances, bright colors, and synchronized calls as good indicators for a beau. Nice territory or high social position attract loyal mates. Many species obediently follow protocol, then immediately flirt with a neighbor's mate. Still, a few remain loyal to each other exclusively for the breeding season, occasionally longer. No matter the attraction or fidelity, relationships provide a means of continuing the species.
Genre: Animals, Documentary
Reading Level: Aimed at all audiences. However, some scenes between mates may be awkward to explain to younger viewers.

Personal Thoughts: With Valentine's Day on the horizon, this is a relevant documentary. However, some of the "private" scenes may prove too mature (or giggle-worthy) for tweens to appreciate. Also, the documentary ends with an unnecessary Bambi-esque narration.
Side Note: Birds of paradise are hilarious.
