I observed the stationary wing display by a pair of Striated Pardalotes the other day, it was quite interesting. A description of the event is under the linked image, the bird displaying held its wings up for 67 seconds, a long time for a little bird (about 10 minutes in Apparent Bird Time by my calculation).
