I found this particularly funny. It wasn’t like a funny accidental thing. Dude was trying to mate with the bird.
In September 2004, Walnut arrived at NZCBI’s Virginia campus, where scientists regularly breed cranes that have behavioral or physical limitations by using assisted reproduction techniques, including artificial insemination. By observing and mimicking how NZCBI’s male white-naped cranes interacted with their mates during breeding season, bird keeper Chris Crowe gained Walnut’s elusive trust. He pair-bonded with her by flapping his arms in a manner similar to the species’ unison dance, offered her nesting materials and brought her food. Once she was receptive to breeding, Crowe was able to use sperm collected from a male crane to artificially inseminate Walnut without the need for physical restraint
They had 8 chicks together.

Can you imagine if she had rejected him? She could’ve killed him!
I wonder if he had another partner. And if they were jealous.

Birds man. I have a cockatiel I rescued. She’s the sweetest, cutest, most delicate princess. But don’t you dare try to touch her, she will go full dinosaur move, except with me.
Nobody is allowed anywhere near her except daddy. She’s glued to me and always demanding my attention and scritches, but won’t let my wife or kids touch her.
