    This is the coolest bird courtship dance I’ve seen yet! And I’ve seen many.

    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!
