4. The birds are hopping around in the branches.
Explanation:
The passage we are analyzing here clearly states that it is because of the birds that the bushes seem to be dancing:
<em>[...] and the bushes fairly danced with birds.</em>
<em>[...] as the small gray birds hopped on the swaying branches.</em>
The birds are hopping, stretching their wings, puffing out their chests, all the while making the bushes' branches sway. Why does the author use the word "dancing" to describe the movement of the branches, then? This is a technique called personification. Bushes cannot dance but, by saying so, the author conveys the idea that the way the bushes are moving is beautiful, rhythmic, hypnotizing, just like dancing.
