These are my recreation clothes.
This little bird reminds me of the Nacho Libre stance—forever burned in my brain by the fabulous Jack Black.
He's all "I was wondering if you would like to join me in my quarters this night... for some toast."

Good call, Meg!
CUTE!
Hahaha well spotted!
Oooooh look at that bubble shaped bird tummy!
Heh beh-beh.
hahahaha! Almost as cute as Mr. Black himself.
Did you see how skinny his legs are?!? Unbelievable!
Quieres mais, amigo?! Soy mucho naranja, no! Y guapo, tambien!
what we have here is proof that the marmalade rule applies to all species. in other words, we do not discriminate against orangey-worangey tum tums.
*Inscrutable birdie stare*
"What are you looking at? Are you looking at my leg? Do you know what happened to the *last* person that stared at my short leg like that!?!"
Double B-E-F. Birdie Beady Eye Factor.
And, though I know it's WWE and not WWF anymore, I still like to think this fellow was once a part of the World Wrestling Featheration.
I love Meg's sense of humor... she's so right on with this observation *LOL!*

Gorgeous orange!
What a gorgeous tweet.
AWW WOOK AT HIS LITTLE FEETIES.

He needs to cut back on the bird seed....
Maybe he should go on Atkins... hehe :-)
What a pretty orange birdie with scary dragon claws! I wonder what kind of bird it is?
PS....
"pretty burrrrrd"

1st Post???
Dang, I wasn't first.
That's the cutest birdy I've ever seen. It's like a little round sun shiney ball. With feathers!
"where have you been?"
"i have been here, sleeping!"
"in a frilly shirt and slacks?"
"these are my pj's!"

CUTE! Xo xo
That pose makes him look all stumpy (and therefore even more cute).
I believe it's a robin redbreast (ie, the European robin, which is in a different family than than the American robin).
Yes, and much more ochre than "marmelade."
wook at the claws!!
Eyes go *plink plink* ..........Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Birdeeee! *faints*
It is a European robin; we have a few in our garden. Here in Britain, they're much tamer than on the continent; you can train them to eat from your hand, if you have the patience (and no aversion to meal worms). They're very noisy...in areas with lots of outdoor lighting, they'll sing all night to keep their teritory marked. And they're the only British songbirds that sing all year long. Lovely little things.
HA! That's great!
I forgot to add, they also follow you around when you garden, plucking up any worms you unearth. Clever little things too.
Edward, I can't begin to tell you how unbelieveably swell that sounds.
Only songbirds that sing year-round... is that why they are (from what I've read) common on Christmas cards? Here in the states that role is mostly taken by cardinals, but I think that's just 'cause they're vivid and pretty.
What do you get when you cross a robin with a vulture?
Really depressing Christmas cards.
Whadda handsome wee boidee boid! Me thinks he's all proshed up for a night of recreating on the boidee town...
That bird totally wants me to come in for some toast.
Another take on "Nacho Libre": a poem by Denise in Nebraska (a-hem!!)
Little Birdie
Too fat to fly--
You ate too many nachos.
Why, oh why? :^)
His wings makes it look like a guy with hands tucked in back pockets or something. xD That whole "I am /so/ smokin' right now." pose. xD
That's exactly why they're on Christmas cards. They're also the sort of unofficial national bird over here, very much loved. In the photo, he's puffing himself up a bit, which they do to make themselves seem larger and more intimidating. When in reality, they just look like little fluffy puffballs of cuteness.
That bird is so pretty that it doesn't even look real. Is it really a Euro Robin Redbreast? Whatever it is, yeah, I'd snorgle that!

To me, it looks like he's trying to subtly ease away from the scene:
"Who ate all my corn!?"
BIRD: "Weelllp, looks like it's time for me to hit that ol' dusty trail...."
Now your talking. I feedbirds in the winter here in northen Ohio. I only wish I were better with a computer and the birds weren't so skidish.-Woods Walker
omg, look at it's little toothpick legs! how are those even working, i mean... they're just sticks! so cool.
Woods Walker,
Perhaps the computer's just too big for them. Try something smaller, like a PDA.
Nyuk nyuk nyuk.
lmao wr :P
Dang, he is clever looking. He looks like the Yoda of birds. "Now, my young paduan, early you must rise, if the worm you will get."
LOVE the birdies!
Edward, what wonderful info about the English Robin. In the northeast of the U.S., the only bird to sing year-round - in full throaty song - is the Carolina Wren.

Cutest bird you'll ever see - so small but with the BIGGEST voice.
eep! I love the stick-skinny, perfectly tubular, little bird legs. Smile.
