birds

Earlier this morning I was in the studio and heard a huge crash against the window. It was so loud and sudden that I nearly fell out of my chair, I wasn't expecting it and it definitely scared me. I opened up the blinds and couldn't really see anything. I was pretty sure it was a bird that hit the window. So I went to investigate.

This video clearly shows why people don't have peacocks as pets and why you don't see them in neighborhoods. Once again real animals are nothing like Disney films! These things are loud, messy and can be down right nasty when they feel threatened.

This cockatoo is a trip! He likes to play peekaboo with his owner while riding in the car. He's pretty smart and seems to enjoy the game, until the unthinkable happens. This is why you never engage in a game of peekaboo with a cockatoo while in a moving vehicle!

I don't know what's more interesting. Seeing this owl out during daylight hours, or watching it being attacked and not doing anything about it. This owl truly doesn't care, it just sits there bored as smaller birds, maybe sparrows dive bomb it repeatedly.

You know what's awesome? This.

We've heard of the terms birdie and eagle when it comes to golf but never seagull, that is until now! This has to be one of the worst tee shot in the history of golf. This guy lines up and wacks the ball in a low line drive kind of way. The ball speeds right into a seagull who just happened to be in the wrong place and the wrong time.

It's definitely not like Disney films! Nature can be a very cruel and unforgiving thing. In the tooth, claw and nail world of wildlife it's truly survival of the fittest! This guy found out the hard way when he released his pet mouse Whiskers into the forest. It was a glorious thing for all of about 30 seconds!

This bird really doesn't want to go to the vet and is letting everyone know about it. Meet Max, he's a male Cockatoo and like most men hates going to the doctor. When his owner grabs his carrier, Max isn't stupid he knows he's about to head to the vet's office.

These poor birds landed on the wrong power line and a dash cam shows the explosive results! The reaction of the people in the car is almost as explosive. I was just talking about this with my daughter who wondered how birds can sit on power lines and not get electrocuted.

You're enjoying an ice cream on a warm sunny day on the beach. Can anything ruin that? The answer is most definitely yes.

A crazy video of a bird trying to make friends with a hunter. This guy's out in a stand, all of a sudden this bird shows up and won't leave. It even perches on his rifle. Damn nature, you crazy as hell!

Ever wonder why some people have an irrational fear of clowns? Well, this clown in Peru certainly isn't helping the matter! I guess this was suppose to be a magic show at some poor kid's Birthday party and it ended up being a birdie homicide! During one of the tricks this clown accidentally lit his bird on fire, oh' the humanity!
