| 22 May 2008 |  Marika Viklund |  Loading...Cute! Very nice photo! I think you could have made the eyes of all of them red though, not just one of them. I can see the eyes of the one to the far right, left and the middle one closest to us. Would give it a more sinister look. But it’s a nice photo of very nice birds anyway! ^^  Shelz Keast replies: "In all truthfullness, this hasn’t been doctored- choughs eyes are naturally red. The one on the right happened to be blinking when I took the photo so its eye can’t be seen. I was originally only going to have this on DA (being a photo) but it wound up with a nice fantasy description and Maxine convinced me to post it." | |

| 27 May 2008 |  Dragomir Cristian Madalin | Loading... lol funny but still a good picture  | |
| 3 Jun 2008 |  Michelle C. Osborn | Loading... I like the description; it made me chuckle. And it’s a very good photograph! Shelz Keast replies: "Had to have that description, other wise (to me atleast) it’d be non-genre. Might as well make it funny in the process, set the Mods in a good mood and all." | |
| 5 Jul 2008 |  Twyla Bendyna | Loading... lol, they remind me of seagulls and their incessant "mine, mine" chitter-chatter......those guys up there look exactly like a bunch of seagulls around a mcdonalds bag in a parking lot out near the beach (course, the seagulls aren’t black, but invision the birds above as seagulls) Shelz Keast replies: "They’re just like seagulls. They sound a bit different (they have a very cute mewing call) and are black otherwise they’re the same.
Okay they’re completely different family too." | |

I don’t thhink I’ll ever go to Wyverns though, I think in pictures not words mainly. The words only come once the picture has arrived." | |

Besides this is one photo of about half a dozen.  " | |
| 25 May 2009 |  Tom Draco Noir Taylor | Loading... Funny photo! I have always heard Australia has an abundance of bird life, do you things kike flocks of Budgies or Lorrakeets often? I saw a show about the Kea parrots that live in the mountains, they were destroying some poor soul’s car. Breaking off the chrome trim, ripping off the rubber gaskets around the windows, all very funny-if it wasn’t your car! We have quite a few hummingbirds pass through the Sonora, and of course, Roadrunners. (And Wiley coyotes as well, I’m afraid) Shelz Keast replies: "I remeber the roadrunners. The first one we saw was in a McDonnalds car park.
You can see rainbow lorries up in Darwin. Especially when the gums down the road are in full flower. Wild budgies are notoriously scatty so really hard to get close. ANU campus is quite good for wild life, with Easter and Crimson rossellas, gallahs and sulphar crested ****atoos eating the ovals. Gang-gangs can also be spotted or at least heard in the evenings." | |

They has some creepy eyes too, they are ice blue almost like a glacier... I guess the deamonic punishment is quite mild of what I know of deamons... Chop a random bodypart is a harder one I guess, even if this must be much funnier to watch.  Shelz Keast replies: "That Swedish crow sounds interesting. I’m not sure if I’ve seen blue eyed birds before." | |
| 9 Nov 2009 |  Judith Ahonen | Loading... That bird has a really disturbing eye. It just doesn’t look real. The blue-eyed bird would be a jackdaw I guess. It really is a bit creepy to meet a jackdaws gaze. Shelz Keast replies: "These guys are really not at all disturbing in life. They’re rather cute and comical. They’re not the most gracefull of birds and are quite cowardly (though they’re not afraid of humans, humans equal food)." | |
