This is a true photo taken at the bird park "Walsrode". It is not a manipulation. OB can sit there and will have company. The bird is harmless in spite of the huge bill and horn.

I fooled you didn't I? The bird fooled me too. Till I was about 15 feet away I did not realize that the bird is made of wood!!

One for wacky Wednesday.

Thanks for 'thinking' of me with this old friend!

Good grief - I thought it was real !
What a strange looking bird. OB would soon have it eating out of his hand though.
Wacky in excess :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Raj, it will be a relaxing idea for Bob that he does not have to fear for droppings while taking an outdoor nap, lol.

Good one for Wacky Wednesday my friend.

That is funny and wacky, Raj. I probably wouldn't have noticed it wasn't real till I tried to feed it! Excellent WW post.

Perfect shot for our resident Bench Bum, Raj.
I thought it was a buzzard at first and figured there would be two Owd Buzzards on the bench before long.
This really gave me a laugh. Good one.

Good thing he is only made of wood and not real as he appears quite sizeable compared to the bench and might have carried OB off into the wild blue yonder, lol...good one for WW, Raj.

If you stare at an orange juice container because it says, "CONCENTRATE"...you might be a redneck.

A good post for wacky Wednesday Raj, but I don't care what you say, that big bird looks intimidating.

I looked several times also and thinking you had added a texture. This is a great find and capture, don't know if I'd sit there, it's big
