Funny Bird




This is my contribution to The Gallery at Sticky Fingers. This week's theme was show me the funny!

Has anyone else seen birds doing this? I'm guessing they're sunbathing. It always amuses me and I was over the moon to capture it on film.

  3. Hehehe! Looks like he's rather peed off you're taking his picture...either that or he's showing you his best side.

  6. I've seen them do this and they sort of pant at the same time don't they? I've only seen blackbirds do it so whether it's peculiar to that species or not I don't know. Quite funny though! (which is clearly why you've posted it!)

  9. Aah, I rescued a bird like this that fell out of a tree. I nursed it back to health, taught it to fly again. And then it died.

  10. Thanks for the great comments.

    Livi and Domestic Goddesque, It is real, not CGI!

    Rosie, I don't think it was singing!

    Laura, I think he's showing off!

    Emily, I've seen magpies doing it too, but mostly blackbirds. Funny strange rather than funny haha!

    Baby Genie, I'm sorry, that made me laugh and it's not funny :-( We nursed a baby bird years ago and it died too!
