The first one freaks me out a little- he has bony human hands XD
They're really neat birds, though, I'll admit. I love polydactyls...

The Dove could not thrive in such condition, unfortunately. On the other hand, the Parakeet was fine and did not even have a "complex" :)

It freaked me out a lot, because on first look I thought that was a wing...

I think its funny that they blurred out the cloaca in the first one.

XD Like they care about bird asses. If they did, CSI New York would be mostly blurred out.
