Abstract
An earlier study (Frith & Frith 1995) reported details of the little-known breeding biology of Victoria’s Riflebird Ptiloris victoriae at two nests. Since then, four further nests have been found, only one of which had eggs laid in it (a clutch of two) and fledged two young. Here we compare our observations of parental incubation attendance, feeding rates, nestling periods and diet at a nest containing two young with our previous observations of a nest with only one young in it. We also compare the structures and materials used in five nests.
