I've only just seen this, but think it's a great picture / screenshot.
A Magpie in Queensland Australia swooping on a biker, which was captured superbly on their GoPro.
It looks annoyed!

Here's the full video

ten hours of bird songs - just add an idiot

I was playing this recording of ten hours of bird songs to Mr Parrot the other night, trying to confuse him.
Serves me right that l then went to bed, leaving the computer on and forgetting about it, only to be woken by the bird noises as they got louder, with me thinking that l had a birds nest by the bedroom window that was the cause of all the noise.
I was leaning out of the window and scanning the outside of the house for a good half hour before l eventually realised that the noise was coming from the computer.
I'm a bloody buffoon, and l hadn't even been drinking!

'Birdman' by Nicholas Kahn and Richard Salesnick. A great idea and superbly shot. Originally featured here, but l came across it here.

igor verniy - dove of peace

This is how Mr Parrot will look if l get around to buying him some armour.
It is however, an artwork called 'Dove of Peace' by Igor Verniy.  If you like the look of these pictures, some more of his steampunk creations can be admired here.
The man's a genius!
