Bird headache

[glacier_kitty]

Yesterday a redpoll flew into the window..mom looked out and said the bird was stunned and then she said another bird was jumping on its back! I went to look and the bird was jumping on it and pecking it! Weirddd haha. Other birds came over to watch too. Mom was like "that's not very nice" and went outside and picked it up and stroked it. I can't believe it let her hold it for that long! The bird was squinting its eyes too. Aww. She put it on the railing of the porch and it eventually flew away. Crazyness

Today's trivia: Frenchman Michel Lotito has a very unusual diet. Born on June 15, 1950, he has been consuming large quantities of metal and glass since he was nine years old. To date, he has eaten supermarket carts, television sets, bicycles, chandeliers, razor blades, bullets, nuts and bolts, lengths of chain, phonograph records, computers, and an entire Cessna 150 light aircraft (which took him nearly two years to consume). It seems that his body has adjusted to this unusual diet, as he eats nearly two pounds of metal every day. His technique includes lubricating his digestive tract with mineral oil, cutting the parts into bite-size pieces, and then consuming a large quantity of water while eating this junk. Most people would prefer a nice glass of wine with their dinner

Aww poor redpoll! Birds are so dumb sometimes haha. That happened once to me with a starling...it let me hold it for a really long time. I actually kept it overnight and brought it to a bird rehab place the following day because I wasn't sure what was wrong with it (I didn't actually see it fly into a window). It must have been scared out of its mind!

Okay...and that person is CRAZY. WHY??? That doesn't even make any sense haha.

Awww that's so cute about the bird.
Amazing that it let your mother hold it!
And I actually read about that man before...that's just unbelievable. His digestive tract must be really strong.
