While cycling around Nishinomiyahama on patrol, we stumbled upon a super lively bird dancing along to the music!

This is the one.
The bird is probably a “kawau” cormorant.

It just keeps dancing away, totally into it.
And then!
[Video] A boat blasting music passes by! The bird is totally dancing along to the music.

After the boat passed, its wing-flapping seemed to ease up for a moment…
Or so we thought!?

It started dancing wildly again!
It’s dancing like crazy!! There’s no stopping it now.
[Video] How long are you gonna keep dancing!?
Finally
It was probably drying its wings between hunting sessions. (Still, that’s a lot of dancing!)
By the way, kawau cormorants are apparently incredibly fast swimmers (up to 4.7 m per second) .
