Here's a short video of the now famous 'Crazy Bittern' dancing at Sprotbrough Flash near Doncaster.
No-one is quite sure as to why this bird is doing these movements - it's obviously not the breeding season so it's not a mating display (and there's no booming anyway), there are no other birds anywhere nearby so it's probably not an alarm or territorial display.
So perhaps there are some magic mushrooms hidden in the reeds or else it must just feel like dancing!
An online birding diary, photo album and scrapbook - it's not much but it keeps me amused
