Seems the key to a lady hummingbird's heart is an octopus beard & aerial acrobatics 🐙🤣. The calliope male hummingbird above is seen flaring his fancy iridescent feathers to impress a potential mate. The hovering, and gorgets-out dancing, is a typical part of the hummingbird mating ritual. If that doesn't have her falling head-over-bird-feet, there's still the "courtship dive"... In the thrilling display, the male birds rocket high up into the air, then swoop down in a U-shape at super high-speed... all for the "woo" 💘 #TheThingsWeDoForLove . . . . . . . . . . #birdsofinstagram #birds #hummingbird #hunmingbird #dive #mating #animalkingdom #animals #animalllovers #animalplanet
