Viral video: Watch this bird head-bang, dance as Elvis Presley’s music is played

The video showing a cockatoo all charged up and rolling to one of the famous Elvis songs ‘Don’t be cruel’.

Elvis’ music is not only a favourite with humans but also with one particular cockatoo bird. YouTube user Mark Muldoon put up a video showing how one of the cockatoo’s in his house got all charged up when Elvis’ ‘Don’t be cruel’ began playing.

In the video, the owner of two cockatoos sings the song and plays it on his guitar. While one of the birds looks unimpressed, the other one gets all excited, starts head-banging and even shaking its feathers.

The cockatoo sways to the music like a hard-core rock music fan and even shakes out its crest of feathers. The other bird only lifts one of its legs, probably trying to get away from its partner, who is way too excited.

Although the video was uploaded by the creator Mark Muldoon on You Tube in February, it went viral after a user posted it on Reddit on Thursday.
