The holiday display above the Holland Tunnel’s New Jersey tollbooth plaza is really bothering some people.

A figure I made of a dual-male display of the Golden-winged Manakin Masius chrysopterus.
The behaviors involved- side-to-side bowing, bobbing their head, leaping over another bird- originate in courtship displays; however, Masius has evolved to use these male-female courtship behaviors in male-male interactions. Males who display together usually share display courts, so male-male displays probably serve to clarify dominance hierarchies and cement alliances.
