The Far Side kereru

This, I imagine, is how Gary Larson might have envisaged kereru.

"I poop on you."

This is the second time today I've had one of those long rolling laughs. Awesome photo, Pete. In that gimlet gaze I sense the question, "So, you think you're something, eh?"

Zhoen, I was careful not to stand beneath it. It is a pigeon, after all ;-)

Barbara, I'm glad you're laughing. I did the same when I saw the photograph. I was confident I'd managed to evoke the sense of that huge body, but hadn't realised I'd also got the Far Side effect with that tiny head ;-)
