Media notes
First male is doing a puffback display, second male comes in flying with back feathers erected - puff flight - for lack of a better term. Then the second male does a dive display with back feathers erected towards the dull bird on the fence next to him, displacing it. Not sure on the sexes of the dull birds, can't quite read their color bands. From what I've seen the bird being dived at is likely a female. Other Behaviors: Perch, Displace, Perform Courtship Display.
