A TRUE BIRD STORY


Going to Orlando Thanksgiving, driving alongside the orange groves, I see an osprey drifting along at a right angle to the car. As we move along, the bird drifts to the left and heads toward our car, then seems to take aim right for us! Yes, this thing has a really big wingspan (up to 6 feet!) and it's eyeballing us. When it starts to look too close, I honk the horn and it veers off to it's left and flies away. Turns out, they actually eat fish, and I think it was after our antenna ball...really.
The ball? See below, yup, it was Nemo the fish...go figure...
