My Favorite Picture From The Zoo

My mom getting attacked by the birds! They sell little cups of nectar, and send you in an enclosure with all these birds. The past few times we have been, the birds weren't hungry. This morning, though, they acted like they were starving, and attacked us as soon as we walked in. At one point, I had about five lined up on my arm and shoulder. This is my sister Colleen. She had six on her arm. Poor Carson (her son) didn't know if he should laugh or cry, until one landed on his head, then he was screaming! I thought it was funny!

I love this too! We have photos of the kids feeding the birds at our zoo too.

I would have crapped my pants! I am terrified of birds. And I wouldn't even go into a butterfly exhibit at the zoo one time because I hate things flying at me!

I will have nothing to do with the birds at the zoo. Irony of all ironies, many years ago, I was walking INTO the birdhouse, when I got pooped on by a bird OUTSIDE. I hate that place now!

Great pictures! Me, personally, I would have run as if I were in a scene from a Hitchcock movie!!

That's so great... I gotta try that sometime.

A week or so ago, we took a family trip to a zoo that has an enclosed bird area... but there's no feeding allowed.

We've been there many, many times before without incident. This time, as soon as we walked through the door, a bird pooped on my 3.5 yr old daughter's head, face and clothing. She freaked out and screamed... but I have to say, she handled it much better than I would have!

How brave! I think I could let a bird get that close to me....
