The fashion for celebrating Valentine's Day as a time to reveal feelings of love began in medieval Europe because at that time February 14 was believed to be the date birds selected their life mates.
I saw this seabird displaying his ardour to a pair of females last weekend. I rushed to get my camera, but was too late. By the time I took this picture the ladies had swum off and the male was left on his own looking a bit sorry for himself.
Perhaps he'll get luckier this Valentine's Day.
