Getting gas at a station today, and this little fellow landed on my finger and wouldn't fly off. I finally persuaded him to be on his way.

Are you snow white?

Or did you lure him in with a piece of bread? Do I not want to know how this ends?

Looks like a Prothonotary warbler. They live in hollow trees.

A male, I think.

When I woke up this morning
the dawn was soft and still
A little robin came and sat
upon my window sill
He tipped his head and looked at me
his eyes so bright and clear
He chirped a little melody
My morning thoughts to cheer
His song he sang so sweetly
Without a moments lull
I gently closed the window down
and crushed his fucking skull.

I lead him in
With crumbs of bread
And then I smashed
His freakin' head

It's a South Carolina Swamp Swivel.

A little bird that flies in an ever decreasing circle, at an ever increasing rate, until it eventually flies up its own ass.

That's not a bird, you fool.

That's the new FBI drone model.

They know all about you now. What station you listen to. The McDonald's debris on the floor. The pine-scented air freshener hanging from your mirror. The condoms in your glove compartment. It's all in their database now.

Just kidding.... cool as hell! glad you had the presence of mind to take a pic. I would have just stared at it for a while.

I actually did just stare at him for a while, he was on there for a few minutes, he did not want to leave and then all at once just took off.

I got a hummingbird to step on my finger like that once.
He was stuck in my garage and had about exhausted himself flying around for 15 minutes ( they need to eat constantly to offset the huge energy needs of flying). I guess he was so tired he figured I was worth a try.
I walked him outside and placed him in a tree with a hummingbird feeder so he could eat when he was ready.

Interesting.

Seems like you were delayed a few minutes due to this.

You'll never know for sure, but sometimes when stuff like this happens (nothing as cool as a bird landing on my finger happens to me) but usually stuck behind a slow driver or something, instead of getting pissed, I wonder if I was meant to be delayed so I did't get into a car accident or get a speeding ticket or something.

Maybe your new friend was a tiny miracle to keep you off the road a few minutes to save your life from being flattend by a run-away semi or something and you'll never even know it.

Sorry, too late, brain no worky, so I hope I got my point across.
