I saw this show last night and I had to share the funniest clip.
There's one bird that makes this crazy sound by vibrating his wings, but the show stopper is the red-capped Mannikin who does the craziest little moonwalk! And they have the coolest little flood pants-looking legs!
I don't know if you can buy red capped mannikins. I've never seen one for sale, but oh my goodness I want one!!
