    Female birds are drab looking because they need to stay camouflaged while tending to the nest. Males are flashy because they usually only contribute genetic material and take no part in the rearing of young, so appearance is their only contribution to mating

    Edit: sometimes

      Bi-parental care is actually the default in birds. Mono-parental care by the mother happens in around 8% of bird species.

      Edit: Also there is little correlation as broad as “birds” with regards to decorations and parental investment. This is just some stuff you made up!
