Relatives of yours... ?
(You know that no one can let this just "pass")
I'll bet even Mr. Hall will add to this thread!

"Relatives of yours...

Nah...we're just good friends....
Ever since Mr.Hall had commented on how he had to dodge them while driving in China, well, I can't get that picture out of my mind....I can just see the cabbie , driving wildly through the countryside, dodging and weaving around these little beasts, occasionally clipping one or two.... plus, they're just plain funny looking.
I'll have to check around the pet shops.....carrying this picture of a horned puffin...

Chris - I'm really starting to worry about you.
And now, you've trapped Howard in your "web"!

....but I was just testing some pics, Michael!! All very innocent! I mean, c'mon......harmless puffins!!
I can't be responsible for the "whirlpool" effect created by this innocent "test"....

Well - if they were "just" puffins... but - these were HORNED puffins - that's where the controversy lies.
Over to you Howard...
I cannot believe I'm posting on this thread - what's become of my life?
Peter - HELP!!!

C'mon Chris.... 'fess up! You know a new thread is like a swimming pool on a hot day - some people just have to jump in (you caught Michael too!!)
I'm not an ornithologist or anything but they are very nice pictures of an intersting bird.
Glad they weren't pictures of anything ugly like a Gibson Firebird!!
Ooops.... should have said that in 'The Others' section. Sorry Peter!!
Er... just realised that that's where I'm at - too early in the morning here. Daylight saving finished this morning and my body clock hasn't adjusted.

Yeah Howard - and he used those puffins as bait. The man has no concience...
Chris - you should be ashamed of yourself - and during the Easter Season - honestly!!
(they are neat pictures aren't they?)
