A Blue-footed Booby is lifting his leg in a ritual mating dance (google this for an enjoyable watch). The bluer the feet, the more attractive the mate. Guess this one is doing OK! Booby fact: All half-dozen or so booby species are thought to take their name from the Spanish word “bobo.” The term means “stupid,” which is how early European colonists may have characterized these clumsy birds when they saw them on land—their least graceful environment.
