Birds ... How do they do it?
I was taking my usual stroll to the school yesterday morning when in front of me is a beautiful brown blackbird ... don't they have such gorgeous eyes?
Anyway, this one wasn't 'bothered', it was merrily sauntering along with three worms already in its beak and squiggling and there it was, pecking around for more!
Now, I remember as a young girl how worms would be poking through a hole in the ground, and you'd try and grab them and pull them out ... would they budge no way, usually they got back down that hole before you could say ... oh I don't know, anything!!! Was I alone in this sport? Come on worm grabbers 'fess up - here's a chance for you to rid the guilt :twisted:
Anyway, I wonder how they do it? Keep the three in their beaks from squiggling back down another hole whilst digging out more?
Clever wee things eh?
