LONDON -- If there's one thing this series of Planet Earth IIhas taught us,Secret Tutoring (2018) it's that life is never plain sailing in the animal kingdom.
That goes for romance, too.

Basically, the Bowerbird is a collector: he gathers random objects (the shinier the better) around his nest, spends ages arranging them, and then hopes a visiting female will be suitably impressed by the display.
The bird in Sunday's clip was so damn romantic he even stole a red heart to woo any potential visitors.

Sadly, things didn't go according to plan.
After showcasing his possessions to a visiting bird and having no luck, our plucky hero finally resorted to his glossiest prize: the red heart.
"But he's made a mistake," said Attenborough. "This is not a female, but a young male who hasn't yet developed that head crest -- and he's making off with the scarlet heart!"

Yep: not only did he not find a mate, but he also literally had his heart stolen.
"It's not easy, finding sex in the city," concluded Attenborough.
