A love-struck pigeon attempts to court a cyclist’s bright shoe with a hilarious mating dance.
The filmer said: “My friend Kristy Gardel and Myself are both training for an Ironman in June. We go out cycling every weekend for hours. This was on a Saturday morning. We had a quick stop on the side of the country road in the Caine fields in Airlie Beach, Queensland, Australia.
“When we stopped, all of a sudden this crested pigeon flew down from the trees and started walking up to Kristy’s shoe. There were no other birds or people in sight. Just the three of us. The pigeon started doing a mating dance around the shoe.
“It would not leave us alone. We assumed it was because of the colours in Kristys cycling shoe. As we decided to leave, it was following us a little and then flew up onto an electric pole to watch us ride away.. it was so friendly and it was the best experience.”
