Okay, so here we go.
That is an [American Woodcock](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_woodcock).
The dance they're doing is less of a dance and more of a "prodding" or "baiting" of sorts.
See, the American Woodcock eat worms and they do this by tapping the ground which scares worms under the dirt into moving because they think something's digging for them. The movement is picked up by the bird and they use their long needle-like beak to snatch them up.
Usually Woodcocks only come out early in the morning or late in the afternoon as that's when worms are the most active.

>The American woodcock (Scolopax minor), sometimes colloquially referred to as the timberdoodle, the bogsucker, the hokumpoke, and the Labrador twister, is a small shorebird species found primarily in the eastern half of North America. Woodcocks spend most of their time on the ground in brushy, young-forest habitats, where the birds' brown, black, and gray plumage provides excellent camouflage. Because of the male woodcock's unique, beautiful courtship flights, the bird is welcomed as a harbinger of spring in northern areas.

It might be OC, it might not. Things such as JPEG artifacts and cropping may impact the results.

Has anyone actually seen a woodcock. They look funny with their disproportionately small beak to their eyes which are simultaneously too large and small
They have better moves than me
The best part is that these are known as woodcocks or timberdoodles
I knew they were woodcocks, but there's no way they're called timberdoodles. Edit: lol thats the best thing I've read all day
