That’s… Really Weird

In my best Rod Serling voice:
“Submitted for your approval…”


A bored and homesick English woman living in Africa became a human nest for a weakling finch for nearly three months.

“Each day, he made little ‘nests’ in my hair, on the groove of my collarbone, which filled me with awe,” Hannah Bourne-Taylor, a London-based photographer and copywriter, told The Guardian this week.

Indeed.

That's a whole new take on the term "birdbrain."

Slow news day at the New York Post, that's for sure!

Reading this immediately made me think of this:

84 days? Then what happened?

This woman must be bored out of her mind if she let a bird nest in her hair for 84 days. She must be a mud fence not to have found a man in that time.

"She must be a mud fence not to have found a man in that time."

Dare I ask, what on earth is a 'mud fence'?

LOL, so suspending his driving privileges won't be a deterrent.

Her and her husband were in Ghana and she couldn't work due to Visa issues and knew no one there. She raised the bird until it could fly and rejoin the wild.
