Birds of a feather …

by Tricia

Wordless Wednesday

Ok I know the saying is Birds of a Feather, Flock together but what are these birds doing? Practicing for the cheer leading squads pyramid?

I’ve seen birds huddled together to keep warm before, but never quite like this!

Have you seen birds do anything like this before? Isn’t it odd? Cute … but different.

    Cool picture§ i never saw three birds like that.
    If you have a look at
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/verobirdie/509567364/in/set-72157600108142478/
    you see two zebra finches that have used to sit on top of each other in turn while sitting on their eggs. They don’t do it any longer.
