That's not the kind of angry bird I liek. :(

That... that makes him angry. :P

*giggles* cute and funny

Thanks! I love watching these little guys. :3

I don't think they love you watching them. o.o;

That's because they don't want you to learn their weird birdy secrets.

Tonight I dine on YOU!

Pic was taken not far from where "Birdemic" was filmed, come to think of it. :P

Hahahaha.... we are all gonna die by blackbird

4 and 20 blackbirds, baking you in a pie.

Burst forth in vengeance, cook is gonna die.

"Are you lookin' at me, punk?"

Great shot. :3

Thanks. He's up for the bird version of an Oscar next year for his role in "The Curious Nest of Benjamin Button".

Angry Birds anyone: http://media.playhaven.com/X6haaqLE.....ngry-birds.jpg

He's posing for the new poster.

that would be funny if he was like some secret boss or something

I'd be scared to see him pop up on my screen. ;P

oh gosh so true, you lose the game and he claws your eyes out

So I herd u lyk taking awesome photos?

Heh... also I liek spiffy compliments, thanks! :3

Wow he looks mighty happy to see u-
OH GOD WHY IS HE PECKING AND CLAWING OUT MY EYEBALLS OH GOD THE HUMANITY WHY OH WHY!

Eyeballs are nature's shinies.

XD

And he is lieking being lieked, even if he won't show it. :3

This is a great shot.

Thanks! It's always a treat when these sorts of things turn out the way you want them to. :3

That is probably the most disgruntled looking bird I have ever seen. SOMEbody hasn't had their coffee yet...

He had his coffee but someone switched it to Folger's Crystals and he hates that. :P

Shit, I thought this was a painting or something from the thumbnail. That's one mean-looking bird XD

His tiny size contains a boundless fury.

Quote the raven, "Fuck you!"

Give yourself an Internet for that one.

Break out the slingshot! That birdie's ready to take out some pigs

The network version says "Quoth the raven, flip you," in a voice that doesn't quite match.

That's a horrible crow!
:O

Blackbird... maybe he's auditioning to become a crow and he thinks this is how he needs to look.

reminded me of http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_yGOlxlgcH.....-happiness.jpg

Wow... he looks like he's about to explode. :P

xD Birds are such angry creatures.

Filled with bottomless rage at their inability not to look cute.

he's posing for the camera. a minute ago he had a big grin on his beak ^.^

He's working on his portfolio. The photographer told him to smolder, then growl like a tiger.

I think I can feel it stealing my soul. 8C

Souls taste a lot like millet seed, or so I'm led to believe.

Hah, I was about to guess Brewer's Blackbird, but then I saw that SOMEONE beat me to it in the keywords.

His body language says he's actually pretty calm; if he were actually angry or threatened, he'd puff out drastically. But there I go again, ruining other people's fun with my down-to-earth logic...

This is one of those one-in-a-million photos.

Thanks! Bird body language is pretty fascinating stuff. Little known fact: a blackbird presented with an unsolvable philosophical conundrum will stand on his head and spin around really fast.

>an ancient evil has arisen

And its scowl can level cities.

Damb! that bird is intense! XD

He heard what we said about "Birdemic" and he'd like a word with us.

Stitch, you really do get some really amazing shots. I have no idea how you catch these animals in these kind of poses. This really reminds me of the infamous "Angry Bluebird" image, even if it's not all puffed up like Nogo mentioned. I'd buy a coffee mug with this image on it. You really ought to market some of this stuff, a lot of your other shots would be perfect for things like comedic birthday cards or calenders or all the other things they use animal pictures for.

It's always great to see your photos, thanks a lot for sharing them here Stitch. Good luck with everything! ^^

Thank you kindly, it really makes my day to hear that folks enjoying my pix as much as they do. I've yet to really look into what it takes to try and sell or otherwise make a profit from this sort of thing... I'm interested, but completely ignorant. It's one of those "wait for a rainy day and then do your homework" sort of things. Getting such positive feedback really encourages me, though. :3

"I HAVE FURY!"

That bird would growl if it could.

When birds growl, it sounds just like the motor in one of those little plastic wind-up bathtub toys. :P

lmfao! That comment was perfect ^o^

Great pic, you're a great photographer =]

Well, *blush*. :3

I think this might be a Common Grackle instead of a blackbird...

Nah, it's almost certainly a Brewer's. Common Grackles are larger (adults being about a foot long from tip to tail... this little guy was maybe six or seven). Grackles also have a somewhat longer neck, tail and bill. Their plumage is iridescent green or purple up around the head, with a bronze tint to the body. Also, while they're not entirely unheard of in California, they tend to stay east of the Rockies and are quite rare for the bay area.

Ah. Well, it sure does present itself in a Grackleish way.

Well, they are close relatives. :3

FEED HIM BERRIES NOW

And maybe with a side of rum caramel sauce.
