These are wonderful!  The Sparrow post reminds me of the Little Brown Job post I read somewhere.  LOL   

Thanks for sharing Ei.

the sparrow one is just hilarious; Bill is very good.

That sparrow one reminds me of a certain website whose name includes "penguins" that I dare not mention in mixed company. "Mixed what company?" you may ask.

Oh, the crow one is terrific. I love crows and what I love most about them is exactly that Attitude, that strut, and that leisurely, condescending hop off the road (because they choose to) to allow your car to go by.

Okay Dale. If I get you that hat (or a reasonable homemade facsimile) for Christmas, will you promise to make a video of yourself next Summer using it? You gotta keep your head perfectly still, put on a goofy face, and cross your eyes a couple of times.

Deal?

deal, definitely deal.

Joyce, that one's very wonderful, too -- on the one hand, it definitely gets you more one-on-one action with the miniature dinosaur; on the other, the first version looks way cooler, with yer man sitting there paralyzed and those things dangling out front. Tough call.

hi, Annette. email it to me and I'll take a look. dale

Speaking of hummers, is this guy an idiot or what? :

Lou, I take that personally!!! I WANT that hat. Doesn't it look like fun?

In terms of the female, yeah. Check out how she just sits there and watches.
I'm mentally yelling at her, "HELLO?!....DUDE! He's levitating! With disks on threads!
Can we see a BIT more enthusiasm from the gallery???"

thanks for the heads up -- I was there last time I was in Long Beach and will try to go again when I'm there for Thanksgiving!

Watching bunnies do "binkies" is very funny.  ...When they're successful at getting away with something they know they're not supposed to do, they "binky" all over the place!     

you mean there's a name for those? I always just vaguely thought of them as the result of bunnies being born with explosive charges set in their backsides, about which their alleged brains know nothing.

It can only be compared to the way baby mice avail themselves of black holes rather than rational space to get around.

The photographer is Joseph Spendelow. I have not been through all the categories, but in the ones I checked out, there were wonderful pictures. http://www.tringa.org/bird_photos.html   dale

yeah...there's one of a lamb jumping on a bed...young rabbits get this too, their hindquarters just fire off autonomously, and the rest of the critter has to go along for the ride. They always look a bit stunned to find themselves in another place, facing another direction.

Paul, did you TAKE that photo?
It's perfect!  Exquisite!
Even the pose is right on!
And it makes me annoyed AGAIN, after all these years, at not having had a camera on me when I saw, in Chicago, two pigeons committing unspeakable acts of lewdness balanced ON THE HEAD of a plastic owl. dale
