[birdky] One legged bird

I've never posted before, but I figured I had to tell someone about this one. Me and my wife have 3 bird feeders outside our apartment. We attracted the usually birds and enjoy seeing them. The other day, I happened to look out and saw what is pictured below. The bird on the left has only one leg. At first, I couldn't believe it but after a second look, I realized that it really only had one leg. The picture isn't the best but I saw it facing the window and could see it has one leg in the middle of its body. My wife saw it later and we have seen it a few times since. The one thing I have noticed is that he has to flap his wings for balance on the feeders as he can't balance himself on the moving feeder. I thought that this might be interesting to you.
