The page for sharing was displaying weird and I couldn't get the embed code, but this is great for bird-related fun. Especially if you've played the game, but I think even if you haven't.

A book about giant angry birds who are going to eat us all like the Wiggly Worms? I'm in!

spotted this past weekend at Disney...

It's so nice of Disney to represent the newer ancient religions in their weird and terrible parades.

news of giant birds: huge storks may have eaten the hobbit people

By Charles Q. Choi

In the "Lord of the Rings" books, hobbits were rescued by giant eagles, but real-life hobbits might have been hunted by giant storks, scientists find.

The fossil remains of what may have been a hobbit-like species of human were discovered in 2003 at the Liang Bua cave on the Indonesian island of Flores. In that cave, scientists also unearthed a large number of bird fossils — including 20,000- to 50,000-year-old wing and leg bones from what appears to have been a stork nearly 6 feet tall (1.8 meters).
"From the size of its bones, we initially were expecting a giant raptor, which are commonly found on islands, not a stork," said Hanneke Meijer, a vertebrate paleontologist at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington.
The carnivorous giant (Leptoptilos robustus) was a hitherto unknown species of marabou stork, among the largest birds alive on the planet.
