For Harry and all you other bird lovers out there :D

I was going through some old pictures tonight, and I found a couple I took years ago with my Sony.

What really caught my eye was that unbeknown to me I had captured the actual technique of "How To Sex A Bird"

Next time your out shooting birds, I really think you folks should give this a go, and tell me if it really works :nod .... Skippy :D

Ya ready?
  1. Point One ..... First of all you gotta spy a bird.
  2. Point Two ..... You have to sneak up on it while its got it's back to you.
This brings us to Image #1

Watch the little boy who is about to climb into the fountain.
See how carefully he is raising that leg so he can slip into the fountain
without being noticed.

Notice the bird on the right of him has not taken any notice of him?
Not that bird, the feathered bird.....
Keep up with the program and pay attention.

This kids bloody good I tell ya :nod

Now, once your in the fountain (in this case) you carefully sneak up
to the unsuspecting bird, grab it with two hands by the legs,
and shove your head up its ..... ask somebody else this kid aint got a clue what he's doing :rofl

    Proves my point.......never whisper around kids about anything you don't want them to know....they have super-sonic hearing! Thanks for the chuckle, Skippy. It really broke up my afternoon! This really is a strange scene...egrets riding mini-dinasaurs or dragons??? Odd! :D

    When I read the title of this thread, all I could think of was bird flu and how we're told only those in very close contact with birds are likely to contract it.

    Yuck :-)
