      His barber isn't doing him any favors. Needs to let those head feathers grow out a little so they'll lay down better.

        I'll try this one:

        An eagle swoops down from the sky and eats a mouse.
        Three hours later, while the eagle is flying, the mouse sticks its head out of the eagle's butt and asks, "How high up are we?"
        "About 2,000 feet," the eagle replies.
        The mouse replies, "You ain't sh*ttin' me, are you?"

        • That eagle looks like Bradley Cooper.

            • The Snowy Owl looks like Wilford Brimley.

              • Great shots. It's just a little too cold to be outside taking pics (currently a sunny -14c). Here are some pics I took while on a hike back in late November before the snow, ice and bitter cold set in:

                  • Following on the fowl theme, we have a canary. We were told it was a male and that it's song would be lovely. Unfortunately, it never sings and actually "Sherbet" has started laying eggs:





                    We have gone through stretches of bitter cold and temps hovering above freezing. I got out and got a couple of good shots of a modern wood stringer bridge:

                        My favourite part of the image is the birds. If shot in RAW, with some editing, I think you could really pull out some detail in the foothills, or the bottom half of the image ... the image makes me miss the mountains.

                          Hard to tell, but they look like starlings from the shape of the wings.

                            Thanks. I did edit to bring out the sunrise. I may take you up and see what my limited skills can bring out.
