Rare 'dinky' bird migrates to US for first time - Yahoo! News
So I am simply trying to read my Yahoo! news and find out that the Dinky Bird has come and flown across the US border from Mexico for the very first time....there are so many interesting points I found hilarious as I read the article - and I cite some here...
"The bird seems "very much out of whack," said John Arvin, research coordinator at the Gulf Coast Bird Observatory. "It moved over a lot of hostile-looking territory to get there. Why that happened is anybody's guess."
and
"Steve Matherly, from Houston, showed up in camouflage Thursday night after driving 3 1/2 hours for a glimpse early Friday.

"The dollars (spent to get here) per gram of bird is kind of amazing," he chuckled, as he looked around at dozens of other birders scanning the brush and chatting in hushed tones."
Well, I am glad frankly that the bird made it over the border, without being frisked, arrested nor forced to return to its original homeland. I never knew there was a dinky bird - now I have seen a few dinkies here and there, think I dated a few as well, and all I can say is that this Dinky is about the cutest dinky I have ever seen...
I rest my case....
