Some bird handlers have no shame - had me in stitches.

I'm sure Karen won't mind me posting these as we both saw the funny side of it and there's 'nothing 'on show'

As you can see the bird display area wasn't exactly busy today so rather than sit with everybody else we decided to plonk ourselves right around the other side. We did this for two reasons - firstly, we had a small baby who was making a noise and secondly it was a nice quiet place for Karen to give little Fiona a boobie.

View to my right - notice the people



View to my left - we'd chosen the empty side.



The view behind me........... "Ladies and gentlemen - here we have the long eared owl" etc etc. Look where the guy decided to fly the birds from and attract everybody's attention

Poor Karen her face says it all really
I bet Fiona didn't care though

I remember trying to find quiet places to feed, it's silly really, it is the most normal , natural thing to do.
