GORGEOUS BIRDS, part 3.

Believe it or not, I actually know the names of some of these birds.



Yellow topped Fluffy Boid, er, Bird




Correct me if I'm wrong -- Mallard?




Parakeet - likely a male.  See the color of the cere, the blue part just above the beak?
That blue is the male color of the cere.  The female cere is tan-brown.



Open mouth Yelling Bird




Red eyed green bird




Peacock




Yellow winged acrobats




Lime Green Bird




Striped Paint Bucket




WHY GOD CREATED CHILDREN
(AND IN THE PROCESS, GRANDCHILDREN)

After creating heaven and earth, God created Adam and Eve. And the first thing he said was "DON'T!"

"Don't what?" Adam replied.

"Don't eat the forbidden fruit." God said.

"Forbidden fruit? We have forbidden fruit? Hey Eve...we have forbidden fruit!!"

"No way!"

"Yes way!"

"Do NOT eat the fruit!" said God.

"Why"

"Because I am your Father and I said so!" God replied, wondering why He hadn't stopped creation after making the elephants. A few minutes later, God saw His children having an apple break and He was ticked! "Didn't I
tell you not to eat the fruit?" God asked.

"Uh huh," Adam replied.

"Then why did you?" said the Father.

"I don't know," said Eve.

"She started it!" Adam said

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

"DID NOT!"

Having had it with the two of them, God's punishment was that Adam and Eve should have children of their own. Thus the pattern was set and it has never changed.

  1. Male mallards have dark green heads; that's a mandarin duck. Gorgeous, aren't they?

    And the yellow acrobats are goldfinches.
