Good night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Birdies! For the last few months, I’ve been featuring birds of every color and sizes for the A to Z Bird Challenge. Although it’s now completed, I went back to pour over the birds that didn’t quite make the cut, so this is sort of a tribute to them… and one or two that were already featured.
And the winners are:
🐦 Best Hair-do: The Gloster Canary & The Crested Duck
Mr. Gloster has a wicked bowl haircut, while the crested ducks look like judges of the lake.
🐦 Most Graceful: The Swan
All I can say is… beat that!
🐦 Most Elegant: The Flamingo
Co-host: Is that the winning dance?
I don’t know what it’s doing, Bob, but this moonwalk is dizzying!
🐦 Most Joyful While Working: The Hummingbird
What can I say? I love watching these babies work!
🐦 Just the Sweetest: The Strawberry Finch
It looks like it was dipped in added sugar. It’s like an overly sweet, ripe strawberry!
🐦 Most Photogenic Owl: The Burrowing Owl
Name a fiercer model, I’m waiting.
🐦 The Cutest Owl: The Barn Owl
Co-host: And it’s fabulous, too!
🐦 Most Talented & Best Prankster: The Lyre
This bird is unbelievable! So incredible, that we have to go to video, Jose!
Co-host: It’s Bob.
That’s what I said! (Cringes as Bob gives a death stare) Anyways, this bird is AMAZING at mimicry! It can mimic anything from car alarms to chainsaws. Let’s go to video with Attenborough!
🐦 Best Dancer: The Western Parotia
Moves so sick, you should call the cops! Here’s the lost audition tape of this terrific dancer.
🐦 Top Model: The Secretary Bird
Come on, Legs for Years!
🐦 Most Excellent Shade of Blue: The Blue Crowned Pigeon & The Grandala
All beautiful things come in packages of exotic blue shades!
🐦 The Fluffiest: The Long Tailed Tit
What a cute fluff ball!
🐦 Best Camouflage: The Large Frogmouth
If this bird were to be still in a pile of leaves… it’ll look like a pile of leaves. And the baby is cute!
🐦 Most Fancy: The Frillback Pigeon & The Crested Guineafowl
What beauties! It looks like someone actually sprinkled chocolate shavings on the pigeon and the guineafowl looks like a rockstar… if Little Richard and Prince were birds!
🐦 Most Extraordinary: The Harpy Eagle
Co-host: ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ called; they want their costume back!
Haha! Good one, Jose!
Co-host: It’s Bob for the last time.
That’s what the parakeet said.
Co-host: I’m out. You can finish host the Birdies with your lame jokes! (Puts mic down and exits)
Peckish much? Let’s wrap this up!
🐦 Bird I Wouldn’t Mess With: The Dracula Parrot
Yikes! A goth among birds. If Marcus was a bird…
🐦 The Sweetest Sounding Name: Tilhi
This bird is beautiful. Period.
🐦 The Most Annoying: Woody Woodpecker!
And that is all the time we have! Thank you for joining us. Good night from somewhere in a bird’s natural habitat!

Hahaha!!! 😀 I really enjoyed this awards! Oh my the hosts were something else and oh my goodness Marc is so upset prior that bird joke of him! He said he’s going to sue that host, but of course I had to pacify him not to. Lol moving forward, all these birds are magnificent displays of God’s artistic and stylish hands too if I don’t say! Wow! I’m amazed!!! ❤ God bless and keep you in His glory! Great post! Loved it!

I’m glad you did, chica! It was a last minute thing. He can’t sue me for I made him into what he is and I can certainly reduce him to nothing. *mic drop*
They certainly are! There were many more that I wanted to showcase, but maybe next time. All glory to God for this project and I look forward to the next one He’ll be giving to me in His timing. Thank you! 💙 God’s peace.
