Dunn in his Peterson Field Guide-Warblers writes of this species, "In threat display around nest, they flick their wings rapidly outwards and may fan or flip their tails."
I was working alone in Michigan on the posted late May date photograhing and observing a male Golden-w1nged Warbler foraging alongside a dirt road in regenerating habitat. I heard this MOWA singing not far off and played one song and went about observing the GWWA. Not too long later I heard the MOWA right alongside the road calling and was able to capture this display which has been described per above. I want to emphasize I remained on the dirt road and didn't spend very much time with this MOWA but the story illustrates how sparingly one can often use calls in the field when photographing. The MOWA is a late migrant so he was likely just starting to set up shop.

Panorama view just after sunset today from Highland Farms in Cornish.
There was nice color and a prominent sun pillar on display.
One of the most impressive displays in my opinion is the one produced by the RAF F-35B. Showing off the VTOL capacity of the aircraft, the pilot just presents itself in front of the crowd without moving the aircraft an inch. After a few seconds of incredible hovering, the Lightning II slowly turns, accelerates and leaves the show...
A visit to the Van Hage Garden Centre in Great Amwell, Ware, UK and this guy decided to show off just as I got my camera out.
"Oh go on then I said. I'll take your photo".
I hope you like the result.
The Common Goldeneye (Bucephala clangula) courtship display is a dramatic,, winter-to-spring ritual where males (drakes) exhibit complex, choreographed, and energetic behaviors to impress females. The most iconic move is the "head-throw," where the male snaps his head back to touch his tail/rump before whipping it forward, accompanied by a loud call and a kick of water.
Continuing the nature theme: An old one taken on a dog walk in Gillingham along the river Waveney with my old Canon Ixus 700 compact digital. Not the best quality but raises a smirk anyway...
Taxiing at RAF Fairford to appear on static display at Royal International Air Tattoo 2018 as part of RAF 100.
As I was leaving my favorite local marsh, I saw his guy chase away another male and do this which was equivalent to a man beating his chest. Also I am sure that he was displaying for the female nearby.
He then chased away another male while I awaited another display, i.e. this one.
