Underneath the slides for each entertaining delight that you discover, you will find a clickable link that lets you easily explore a more widespread collection of wonderments (verse, photos, wordplay, song-lyrics etc.) on the topic of your choice. 

 b) Today's Offering (Jan 29,2025)TALKING HEADS

Photos of this ilk, and subsequent posts displaying mammals and 'lower' animals, were obtained by Giorgio Coniglio, using an i-phone camera, at various locations, mostly in the 'wild'; a minority was obtained at zoos, museums, aquariums and wildlife sanctuaries. The collection of a dozen-or-so consultant avians was originally posted on this personal blog on September 19, 2023, but has been extended since that date; this will be the second such offering of avian talking heads.

Use web-photos? Wide prohibition,
Though it's sometimes allowed, on condition.
But the bird-pics I'm showing
Are justified, knowing
I've obtained their Creator's permission.

Giorgio Coniglio
