The Case of the Food Dropper - Part II

   Hungry house sparrows were noshing on bits of cupcake yesterday morning, courtesy of the mysterious "Food Dropper" in our office building. As we rolled down the garage ramp yesterday afternoon, we saw that broken-up pretzels were on the lunch menu.

   As the photos show, sparrows are beastly creatures that attempt to stuff entire pretzel chunks down their beaks. If a title had to be ascribed to the photos, "Hell-bent on Satisfying Hunger" might be apt. As mentioned in yesterday's Food Dropper, we've seen meat balls on the ground and we're curious if the birds will even attempt to eat meat or if it's too unpalatable.

Check out the sparrow on the left in mid-hop while the one in the middle cranes its neck to look at something. Maybe he's scoping out a pretzel chunk.


Mother Nature should have given birds teeth for the time in their evolutionary cycle when they would have to contend with crunching up baked dough morsels.

This bird seems to be planning its method of attack on how exactly to eat something as hard and crusty as a pretzel. Never mind the salt....

The bird on the lower right is straining so hard to eat the pretzel that its feathers are all ruffled. We imagine the little guy above is chirping out encouragement...or scorn.

 


Birdie does a Groucho Marx impersonation.

Looks like professional wrestling and just as painful. That's the "Taking it down to the mat move." Or something like that. 

If this bird could talk, he'd say, "Mama, I couldn't eat another bite" or "It was hard getting it in and it's going to be harder getting it out..." or "Pass the &$%@ Maalox"
