I've linked to streaming videos of moonwalking male manakin (birds) before, but it is so amazing that I had to share two more links with you (the first one of these videos of the moonwalking manakins is the extended version, and both are new links to this site). Includes music by Michael Jackson [3:28 & 1:50]

Yet another video of these birds that you will enjoy [1:50];

Goodness, it's an Aracuan bird! :-)

And I really like Ms Boswick's [sp?] rendition of the dance...

Really? Because Ms. Boswick's rendition of the dance actually kind of freaks me out.

Hey Devorah-
I showed the first of these manakin videos to my sociobio class when I introduced the concept of sexual selection. The whole class laughed uproariously. It was great. Thanks for sharing!
