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.
