birds

We will be the first to admit the internet is a weird place: to prove our point, here is Skateboarding Parrots, the Tumblr of birds on skateboards.

The pitter-patter of crazy Koolaid the bird's feet makes while he runs after his ball in this video is probably the greatest sound ever. Sorry, Beethoven -- yer DONE!

Sometimes, riding shotgun isn’t good enough.

Oh, Japan, you never disappoint.

Hunting upland birds like quail, dove, grouse and pheasant has it's challenges. Most center around terrain, guns, gear, dogs and proper technique. After watching this video maybe we're going about it all wrong! After all there's no need for dogs, gear and guns when you can just reach out and grab them out of mid air.

An angry pheasant is terrorizing a family in a sleepy village in Great Britain by constantly attacking them every time they leave the house.

Just as he finished a sermon on Sunday, Pope Benedict XVI symbolically released two doves into the air as a call for peace. But soon after the birds took flight, an aggressive seagull began dive bombing one of them. Uh oh. We're generally not superstitious, but we sure hope this isn't a sign of bad things to come.

Warning: our obsession with baby animals is unstoppable. Can you honestly blame us, though? We're already suckers for anything fuzzy and adorable, but when it comes in a tiny version, we're just sucked in automatically. Remember miniature puppies or itty bitty kittens? Our point exactly.

Thinking about getting a parrot? You'd better kiss your dreams of being an amateur beatboxer goodbye! This video shows the results of working on your beatboxing around the house when you have a bird just waiting to mimic you.

If you know anything about us here at TheFW, it's that we love any sort of furball, particularly those of the adorable variety. Tiny dogs, piglets in people clothes, you name it-- we're fans. There are also times when we sort of feel bad for our fellow animals. This is especially true when unfortunate haircuts are involved.

Spirit the eagle, Auburn University’s mascot, took its traditional aerial tour around the bleachers of Jordan-Hare Stadium before the kickoff of Auburn’s football game against Mississippi State on Saturday. He was looking quite majestic in flight as the crowd of 85,000 cheered until … smack — Spirit crashed right into a glass-enclosed luxury box.

When we last checked in with Russia, there was a guy going around the country seeing how many breasts he could feel up. Things get even stranger in this new viral video from the former Soviet Union, which shows two wannabe ninjas in a public square engaging in what can only be described as a duel involving live pigeons.
