I love the french fry birds!

If my hardrive hadn't crashed I'd post up a bunch more of my favorite "french fry" birds! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

PS - you're not mad at me Awe for calling that one a french fry bird are you? Well, I hope not but it was a french fry bird!! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

'Course not, even though it was a Belding's Savannah Sparrow and the only way it gets french fries is if you bring Micky D's to the wetlands. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/monkey.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/monkey.gif" alt="" />

Does McDonald's sell McFishTaco's yet?

We got some natural beauty too.
I'm not sure these guys are appreciating it all that much right this instant though, but ya never know.
They could be. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Not a bird but part of Nature, nice little Campbell River summer run Steelhead I caught mid-day a few years back.
Made one cast just on a whim and bingo......there she was.
