Video: This footage of two seagulls Irish dancing is bizarrely hypnotic

It's like the dancing priest scene in Father Ted

It’s like the dancing priest scene in Father Ted.

Remember those seagulls who “lost the run of themselves” in Dublin a few months ago? It’s appears they’re back.

However, this time they aren’t harassing pedestrians walking the streets of the capital.

They’re now channeling their energy into dancing, Irish dancing to be specific.

YouTube user keefster001 was looking out his window when he spotted the Michael Flately and Jean Butler wannabes in action.

He kindly added some Irish music for effect.

The seagulls are actually stamping about to attract the worms to the surface. Clever birds.
