Fear of feathers???

BIRDS

I am interested in them especially their evolution, but you won't see me holding one.

Nothing wrong with holding birds.

Awww, I find scenes like this totally adorable!

I am a chicken, funnily enough I can grab a roast chicken and eat it just fine.

I don't mind birds but I like these creatures a lot more:



Used to have a hamsterlarium (a few cages connected by networks) when I was in secondary, and these guys are a load of fun just to watch!

I was never allowed to have any pets as I child, so I made do with watching these fellas in our pond...

[Hammer278]

I had tadpoles until 1 by 1 they died...and 1 survived to look like your friend there, which was when I decided to throw him out as it didn't look quite so much like a 'pet' anymore.

Quick list of animals I've had in my childhood - grasshoppers, fish, lobsters, tadpoles, hare, cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, snails (!!!), these at the top of my head.

Parents were quite accommodating since I am an only child, though they never allowed birds....winged creatures stuck in cages didn't feel right for them.

I love birds. And if they get trapped in my greenhouse (and sometimes even in the house in Wales) I pick them up and take them out, and I hang on to them for a while because I really like them. But I do understand you because I have an irrational fear of spiders and go ape s*** if one is near me...worse if one gets on me!!

There's the added benefit that birds do eat spiders.

[racechick]

Lovely birds!!!!!

[bud]

I can hold spiders and snakes just fine, birds are my kryptonite

I bought a piece of art yesterday It's a life sized piece, about four feet across.

Spiders eat other bugs though. I'd be different if the spider actually posed a risk but even the ones here that can bite wont do much harm so I leave em alone.
