1. That bird is a total a-hole. nt

[Cracklin Charlie]

2. It was potluck.

He thought he was invited.

[Are_grits_groceries]

8. He wanted to drop it on the barbie. Nt

3. And so it begins

Hitchcock saw this coming.

[Glassunion]

4. Aw hell nope!

Is it me, or is everything in Australia trying to kill you? Sure a snake can kill you, but a bird with a snake is a new one to add to the never ending list.

Giant rats, sharks, scorpions, crocodiles, stingrays, razor sharp coral, convicts, giant f**king spiders, more scorpions, pit of hell desert, cyclones, box jellyfish, wild fires, and now attack birds...

5. How roo'd

[cwydro]

7. Lol!

I wish I could spend a day watching the wheels turn in your punny mind!!

[pinboy3niner]

11. Okay, but I have to warn you...

[cwydro]

25. This is why I know I'd feel right at home lol!

But seriously, you have a talent.

Still lolling (to this day) over the door buzzard thread.

You knocked that one out of the park.

I wish I bookmarked it. It would cure any depressing mood!

[pinboy3niner]

26. It wasn't me, it was our friend Orrex who started it

I just riffed on him and others.

[cwydro]

27. This is true. There are a few of you who are excellent in this regard lol.

I keep coming to DU, rain or shine, because I know someone will make me smile ( or laugh out loud).

And that's worth a million.

[suffragette]

6. Reminds me of this Farside cartoon

[kimbutgar]

28. My young boy cousin aged 12 years put a snake in my bed when we were kids

I got into bed and was going to sleep when I felt it on my leg. At first I thought it was a wet spot, pulled the cover back, saw the snake and nearly died. It took my Grandmother over an hour to calm me down. I refused to sleep in that bed the rest of the time I was visiting her. I called my Mother the next day and demanded she fly me home( I was visiting my uncles farm in Michigan for the summer) I lived in California. 2 days later I flew home. I never trusted my cousin again.

[suffragette]

29. That's unpleasant. I wouldn't trust him either.

When I was a kid we would catch and race garter snakes, then spend the next half hour arguing about who won since the snakes would rarely go in the same direction.

[sheshe2]

9. OMG!

[Demonaut]

10. fake

[niyad]

12. fake according to this:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/08/31/hawk-throwing-massive-snake-on-family-in-australia-video-a-fake/

[canetoad]

13. Possibly fake

But the only surprising thing, if its not fake, is a snake being about in August. This kind of stuff happens all the time here. It has been a warmish August (for winter), snakes are going to start moving soon and they are often found near water.

I once drove over a hill crest in central Queensland to see a wedge tailed eagle hovering just above the road with a calf's head in its talons.

[pinboy3niner]

14. Now I feel terrible about blaming the calf's head disappearance on the dingos

"A dingo ate my calf's head!"

[canetoad]

16. An open letter of apology

to all dingoes is expected.

[pinboy3niner]

18. I'll think about it after I tie me kangaroo down, mate, tie me kangaroo down. :) nt

[bluesbassman]

17. Or the fiancé.

[pinboy3niner]

19. Maybe the baby wasn't dingo-worthy

[canetoad]

23. OMG LOL

She sounds just like Meryl Streep.

[Stellar]

20. Whoa!!!

[pinboy3niner]

21. A Norwegian Blue parrot would never do that

[Heeeeers Johnny]

22. Anyone care to translate WTF they were saying?

[canetoad]

24. Argggghh

Eeeeee, ooooooo.
