Wow! Seeing and hearing the gooney bird mating dance after all these years is like time-travel for me! My family lived on Midway Island for about three years in the mid-60's. For most of the year, Midway Island is home to many thousands of these birds, and during mating season it gets VERY noisy! I remember being a little kid, sent to bed while it was still light outside, with dozens, if not hundreds of gooneys doing that dance just outside my window. Jean, thank you for posting this!
@@thetwistedsamurai I find it hilarious that people are getting upset because you said the f word 5 years ago. I also find it annoying that I can’t spell it out properly otherwise RU-vid mods might start hiding my comments, it’s so dumb. But yeah, these birds really *are* f’ing adorable. ❤
I’ve never seen this before. What a dance! And the vocals. Wow! 2 thumbs up. This was awesome! Wonderful and their very beautiful! Thank you for sharing this...
Most distinguished Ladies & Gentlemen and viewers of this Esteemed Princeville. U-tube Channel, May I have the honor of presenting the “Laysan Albatross Courtship Dance” performed by beautiful Ballerina and her husband Albatross. This ritual dance is performed before their courtship, shows, perfectionism and finest degree of coordination, along with the perfect beauty in motion depicting, the age-old family traditions combine with few contemporary Jazz steps, and the beautiful, Couple, singing an immortal duet something like “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart…” Thank you Jean for sharing the Video 💘💕👍
I have watched other Laysans dance but these two seem much more advanced in their choreography, does anyone know how many years they have been together?
