Dancing birds

Patel, Iverson, Bregman, Schulz (2009) - Current Biology

Although youtube may claim otherwise (this study was actually inspired by a youtube video), scientists had not documented dancing in non-human species.... until now. In a recent study, the sulphur-breasted cockatoo (named Snowball, pictured above) was shown to "spontaneously adjust (to) the tempo of its rhythmic movements to stay synchronized with the beat ". The beat of The Backstreet Boys.

Which confirms what I've suspected all along- birds have poor taste in music.
