Completely Unrelated
We just got back into town last night. When we arrived in Minnesota, it was about 30 degrees. A very pleasant temperature to ease us into winter. This morning I woke up and the radio weather guy said that the high today was 21 degrees...the current temperature being 3 degrees with a windchill of -12 degrees. Yikes! No, I'm not ready, that's January weather...
So, here are some odds and ends to make you smile: Here's an artist who takes found objects and turns them into arty vingettes. Here's Bye Bye Birdie and Scissor Bird. The non bird related stuff is very worthwhile, and you can find more at Bent Objects. I think my favorite is Ending a Dysfunctional Relationship.
Holy Crap, someone made a coot look cute over at CuteOverload. Who knew?
Those reading the blog with kids, may want to check this next link alone first, so you can prepare yourself for some 'splainin' to do. All I can say is that this is bird news from my buddy Olga.

Great links! :D
Coot Overload?
lol - just doing my morning cute and icanhas.. and disapproval check before starting my day - saw the coot and came to see if you caught it yet! it's quite funny looking!
have a great day brrr - it's in the 60s here which is too cold for me!
The strangest things in a coot are the creature's feet. They tend to look as something made with Mecano...
Thanks for the Bent links!
My favourite must be the chocolate pirates one...
Am I the only one who finds it strangely ironic that the Melbourne duck-researcher's name is Mulder? They're out there, Scully. They're out there, and they look like giant, limp corkscrews.
The common earwig, you know, has two (it's in that episode somewhere). In case the first one comes off.
What? They do! :D
Thanks so much for posting the links to "Bent Objects"! That is one of the most fantastic photoblogs I've ever seen!
(The bird "objects" are just the tip of the iceberg...)
(runs off and tells all her friends about it)
Thanks for the links to my blog, Sharon. Funny thing is, I'm posting another bird related photo in the next day or two (although they really aren't the kind of birds many people watch, hehe).
Terry,
I'll keep my open on the blog.
BTW, just checked your profile--had no idea you are from Indy, I just got back from there.
Saw the other blogs you have too. So naughty, so funny.
OMG The bent objects are awesome...You can know that I've never grown up when I tell you my favorite (Laughing way out loud all alone) is "The Royal Chamber"....too funny
