Biomechanics of the Peacock’s Display: How Feather Structure and Resonance Influence Multimodal Signaling

Courtship displays may serve as signals of the quality of motor performance, but little is known about the underlying biomechanics that determines both their signal content and costs. Peacocks (Pavo cristatus) perform a complex, multimodal “train-rattling” display in which they court females by vibr...
