Hi everyone,
Being one of the younger generation of bird watcher I sometimes see some similarities between the 'gaudy' males in both birds and humans.
 
Take Mooseheads as an example. The longer the rats tail or the more 'peacocked' you are, the more likely you are to get a bevy of ladies watching you wherever you go. Of course, these males are more likely to breed (unintentionally) although I don't think it furthers us as a species...
