One day my friend Stevie & I found one of these birds, just not quite as big as this one. We soon found out, or should I say, Stevie found out that these birds could fire their head at you at lighting speed. The story goes like this: we were at the seaway, found this bird and decided to bring it home. Stevie put it in his jacket, we jumped on our bicycles and headed home. All of a sudden, Stevie jumps off his bicycle and hits the ground as this bird pops his head out of Steve's jacket and starts to fire his beak at Steve's head. Needless to say, Stevie won the battle and the bird didn't make the trip home, we just parted company with a few well selected words for the bird ... As I remember a few seconds later we found a boat 'free' just for the taking. We couldn't believe our luck that day... RIP Steve.
