Looks like a kingfisher of some sort?
kookaburra?
tawny frogmouth dude?

Fully grown Sacred Kingfisher. A really PISSED OFF sacred kingfisher.

Special Action Figure Froggy Mode!

I'm getting good at this bird thingy.
Today I saw a little blue heron that was white, a great blue heron in flight, a tricolored heron looking for lunch and 2 egrets - i had a hunch

Ooh I'm going to give you such a pinch.

Bird says, "GET THAT FINGER OUTTA MY MOUTH---!"

[dewhitton.livejournal.com]

more like "Bastard! BASTARD! I HATE YOU AAAAAAGH!" The little kingfisher was very cranky.

[jim-lane.livejournal.com]

If some 50-foot high monster was poking its finger down YOUR throat, you might become a bit "cranky", too---!

*hehehe!!!*

Of course, kingfishers aren't known for being all that "sociable", either...

Ciao!

So do you have a fake finger on that hand now, or what? Those things are vicious :)

[dewhitton.livejournal.com]

It was the only way I could stop him from pecking holes in my hands. The beak edges are so sharp that he could nip off little folds of skin, as though he had a pair of scissors. Stuffing a whole finger in there was far less painful.

This is why I wear gloves.

[dewhitton.livejournal.com]

They're so small I can't feel them through gloves. I have the same problem with microbats.

Kookaburra, I think.

[dewhitton.livejournal.com]

Sacred Kingfisher. Kookaburras are the size of bantam chickens.

right face - wrong colour for a kookaburra no? Is it one of those blue bird things we saw at the Western Plains Zoo?

[oceansedge.livejournal.com]

OOps see your kingfisher answer now :)

[erin-c-1978.livejournal.com]

That is an amazingly beautiful bird! And also, ow.

[weyrdbird.livejournal.com]

No Egrets?!

Us birdies are living in the HERON now, bub!:D

When the bird eventually gets released, will it be a King Fling Thing?

That is a gorgeous picture, even if the Kingfisher is hell bet on making his absence possible :).

Cool kingfisher.. but why were you trying to feed him your finger? I have heard of giving someone the finger before, but I dont think thats what they meant :)

[griffen.livejournal.com]

BOOODY! :)

[tatterdemalion.livejournal.com]

i take it you didnt need that finger anymore

[silmaril.livejournal.com]

...and reading back even more, I'm enjoying this a lot. You've got a wonderful journal.

Mind if I put you on my regular reading list?

[dewhitton.livejournal.com]

I don't mind at all. 8)
