PhotoHunt Theme: Bird(s)

"Bird(s)" is the theme this week.
~~~~~
When we went to Lake Tahoe with my parents in September 2008 my husband and I drove around the lake. On the far side of the lake we stopped at Gar Woods Grill & Pier for lunch. Since it was so beautiful out, we ate outside on the deck. A few tables away from us I saw a little bird land looking for crumbs on the table. At first I thought that it had it's right leg tucked up like a flamingo. But it turned out to only have a left leg. It stood on the table for about 5 minutes, just looking around and then it flew away.

Amazing how it can stand on that one splindly leg. Hope it managed to survive for many (bird) years.

I don't know how birds do that! I can't stand on one leg for very long, that's for sure.
