Helpful Posts: Sorry that the 'dancing dove' is a little soft. What it lacked in tapping technique it tried to compensate for with frenetic footwork, and was a bit hard to capture. Watching its routine I can tell you Fred Astaire's reputation is not under threat.
Thanks for viewing and any comments posted. All are much appreciated, good, bad, or indifferent.

The look on the lorikeet's face says it all. Really interesting.
Do the doves always land on the feeder? They're supposed to be on the ground.

I just fixed that for Ken. I turned up the screen brightness on my iPad.

It's interesting observing the pecking order of birds/animals. Our chooks will see off the female bush turkey but not the male. The turkey's chase the wallabies away from the bird bath.

Re: Why does a low talent always try to hog centre stage and the limelight?
"Light, light, more light" do you demand? But do you mean an overall increase in stage lighting or just a spot light on the dancing dove? Which by the way, was doing its shuffle to an old Fred Astaire/ Ginger Rogers song, "Dancing in the Dark." Which was probably the best lighting in which to view said dove's efforts. It was not what one would deem tripping the light fantastic! Not an act likely to progress far in any X-factor auditions. Anyway I wasn't sure what required. So here are two alternatives which will hopefully shed more light on the matter.
