Anatomically Correct Dancing Brooms

+0
−0

Consider the following GIF:

enter image description here

The brooms from this Fantasia scene are always busy. They dance around energetically in a military-like march, never stopping to rest. When their wizard overlord is on vacation, they enjoy lounging around the castle and listening to jazz music.

How close to these brooms can an anatomically correct creature evolve to be?

These creatures must:

  • Have a body and arms made of wood or a wood-like material
  • Have "bristles" made of a straw-like material as legs
  • Be able to walk, climb stairs
  • Be capable of lifting small loads with each arm
  • Be able to navigate its surroundings and interact without eyes
  • Have the ability to synchronize with one another

Although the brooms from the film are animated with magic, magic should not be included as a solution in any part of the answers.
