Birds Of A Feather
garinda’s response to the Hocus Pokus thread triggered a thought in my head in the form of another question.
If all the birds in the whole world were to be made extinct right now, which two birds would you save and why those two?
I know very little about either but for me it would have to be the puffin and the albatross.
The puffin because it has such great character and the albatross because of its grace and mastery of the air.
Who is going to do one about animals, insects, reptiles and controversially human race? On second thoughts better not human race.

Re: Birds Of A Feather
Can I get back to the original topic?
I think I'd like something which sings prettily like a nightingale and something which looks beautiful like a bird of paradise so as to be pleasing to the eyes and ears.

I'll try my best, but I think my voice might be breaking.

That's twice you've complimented my body recently in photographs, I don't want Busman getting jealous and giving me a punch.
