Know's what's sweet?

New World Vultures

Stork


 details:




 I've seen a lot of pterodactyl type birds while hanging out in my parents backyard over the years. - mostly herons. Although I've never seen a wild stork, amongst my birdwatching research, I discovered these guys to be the raddest.  These things are giant ruthless water vultures! and somehow* landed the identity of being famous for bringing swaddled packages of human babies to us.   In reality these birds would probably be way more delighted to deliver that infant bundle straight back to their own nest for a feast.

 One of my favourite video channels: the Cornell Lab Of Ornithology 
an honourable mention goes out to the screaming Heron defensive live cam vid:

Whooo wants to see some owls?

if you gave an emphatic yes! then you're in the right place.
BeHoold:

The Great Owl
I am still haunted by the awesomeness that is The Secret of NIMH.   Next to The Goblin King's alter animal existence, the Great Owl of NIMH may be the raddest of movie owls out there.  I'd throw this movie in my top 10 favourite animated movies. If your parents neglected to show you this amazing piece of pop culture, Run to your nearest source for movies, build a fort, turn out the lights and watch this! The Great Owl will change your nightmares dreams forever.

it's available  here on Netflix

the General: Ghoulies or Goblins ?

The General
My friend has a dog that resembles something between Ghoulies and the Labyrinth's Goblins.  Either way I seem to have fun with him :


The General behind the Labyrinth - a card I made for him.
