Like many other migratory seabirds, the blue-footed boobies depicted here engage in elaborate mating dances as part of their courtship display. Dance moves include "sky pointing" and an exaggerated walk known as "parading" in which the male displays his brilliantly coloured feet. The name "booby" derives from a Spanish slang term meaning "foolish" or "clown." This is thought to reference the booby's "parade" dance move. It may also reflect the booby's habit of landing unconcernedly on ships filled with hungry sailors.
