I am a bird man.

I love birds.

Here in Australia I have rescued several pigeons. Did you know that pigeons have better eyesight than humans? They can zoom in on an object much the way we can do with a magnifying glass.

I have rescued a sacred ibis. When you do this you have to do it illegally as both pigeons and bin chickens are considered pests and are culled not rescued. I enjoy breaking this "law".

Today I had the pleasure of giving a wild kookaburra a neck rub. That is a first for me.

When I was a bit younger I had a wild Rainbow setup up on my finger.

It seems that birds pick up on fear and if you are not scared they are inclined not to fear us either. What do you reckon?
