Omg! That bird is amazing!

A young man was listening to Daft Punk's song Phoenix with his bird buddy on his shoulder.

While blasting the track, the bird started bobbing his head to the beat!

Then he started really head banging and his whole body got into it!

He literally dances for the entire song!!

Best part? His owner said:

"I've only seen her dance to Daft Punk, and especially to this song in particular."

Ha! Wow! What a great bird!

Daft Punk literally has a bird fan! So cool!

Check out the video (above) for an ahmayzing dancing bird.

At Prague Zoo, Antonin Vaidl has a very important job.

He's a bird curator and he gets to spoon feed a brand new baby parrot!

The 3-day-old baby is an Edward's Fig Parrot, or Scarlet-cheeked Fig Parrot.

A zoo rep said that parrot babies are very rarely seen and births in captivity are even rarer, so this pic is extra amazeballs!

The little guy will eventually grow to about 7-inches-long.

He'll be mostly green with a red breast and cheeks, yellow ear converts and a yellowish crown.

He's gonna be so pretty!

But for now we'll just aww at his baby cuteness!

Halle Berry better watch out!

Her fiance Olivier Martinez was basically attacked by some admirers!

Luckily for her - the admirers were a bunch of colorful parrots! Or as the natives call them - macaws!!!

Olivier was either having the time of his life as parrots sat upon his body, or was frightened beyond belief!

We honestly aren't sure!!!

Personally our idea of a dream vacation does not involve what Olivier can be seen doing (above).

We'd rather just hang out with these ladies.

But to each his own - we guess.

At least this terrifying experience was absolutely a wonderful kodak moment!

Check out some pictures of Olivier with some human beings (below) !!!

Wesa is a cute, 2-week-old California Condor chick!!

She just hatched back on February 24th and is the first chick of the season at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park.

The little baby chick has maintained a healthy weight and eats up to 15 mice per day!!

Gross! But healthy for growing condors!

What's kinda funny/weird is they're "puppet rearing" the chick.

That means the zoo keepers put their hand in a condor puppet and interact with the chick so it can eventually be released into the wild.

The zoo's senior condor keeper said:

"The puppet is like a fancy glove. It covers our hands so the chick does not get any beneficial experiences from people. We do not want it imprinting on people or getting used to us when it goes out into the wild. We want it to be a nice, wild animal, not relying on people for food."

Wesa is part of a California Condor breeding program which brought condors back from literally only 22 in the '80s, all the way to the 400 that are in the wild today!

Way to go, SD Zoo! Congrats on the new chick!

We hope they are not drinking and flying!

We're not sure if you knew this, but there a wide variety of birds who occasionally like to get wasted!

The waxwings of North America have been known to get so drunk off rotting chokecherries that they would fall off their trees and could only respond to researchers by hissing.

Sounds a lot like your drunk uncle, no?

The bananaquit of Latin America also known as the "yellow bird" can chug alcohol of 4-6% proof and not only that but can hold its liquor very well. We have a feeling it would be very good at beer pong if it had, you know, hands and stuff.

But not only birds like to get their drink on.

Recently, a wood mouse somehow squeezed into a bottle of red wine, and afterwards was so drunk the mouse couldn't even get out!

Sounds like that mouse needs to head to AA asap!!!

Chicago has found an odd method for getting rid of the pigeons that are plaguing the city.

They're deporting them! To Indiana.

A Chicago alderman had already proposed a $1,000 fine for feeding the birds.

Now his office has confirmed that they are removing the pigeons.

A spokesperson said:
