What do birds do when we aren't looking (carefully)?
1. They barf.
In my backyard is a little evergreen tree. This tree would be of no distinction whatsoever if not for the fact that it's a favorite barfing spot for our local kingbirds. Kingbirds are unable to process the hard exoskeletons of the insects they eat. What better way to get rid of the crusty bug bones than vomit?
"OK, good...Mrs. Kingbird isn't looking."
"Ready in 3...2...1..."
"HUAAAAAAC..."
"...tu!"
"Thaar it goes!"
You just saw a series of pictures showing a barfing kingbird. Your life is now complete.
Happy Holidays!
