21 Dec 05 - 02:36 PM (#1632321) Subject: BS: 85% of birds abandon Canada! From: GUEST,T. Montague It happened, quietly and insidiously, over the past 3 months. Only a minority of the birds are still here. Most of them have left or vanished. It went unreported by the media. A massive coverup. It may mean that the end is near, at least for Canada. Where have the birds gone? Are they gone for good? Will the remainder leave? What then? It is time that people opened their eyes and faced the facts...the birds have left! The moose may be leaving too, but I have not yet confirmed that. Moose are harder to observe than birds. I take this very seriously indeed, and regard it as a sign of the End Times. Has anyone else noticed? If so, post here at once. |

Last week, one of said feathered varmints run into my picture window and dired. When I went to throw the carcass in the trash I noticed a sign on it's bottom: "Made in Canada". Hummm. |

If it is, you can get big bucks from collectors. I did notice big flocks of birds gathering a month or two ago, and then they all left. Strange... |

21 Dec 05 - 03:03 PM (#1632344) Subject: RE: BS: 85% of birds abandon Canada! From: MMario It's okay, unless of course the butterflies have abandoned Canada as well. Then you are in big, BIG trouble. |

21 Dec 05 - 03:05 PM (#1632347) Subject: RE: BS: 85% of birds abandon Canada! From: Little Hawk Agreed. Chongo will not get to peruse these photos. He's still ranting on about the new King Kong movie anyway, so his mind is on other matters at the moment. |

21 Dec 05 - 03:13 PM (#1632357) Subject: RE: BS: 85% of birds abandon Canada! From: MMario Surely they won't be entering that phase for a couple more months though, will they? Unless global warming accelerates the process. |

21 Dec 05 - 03:20 PM (#1632369) Subject: RE: BS: 85% of birds abandon Canada! From: Joe Offer All those Canadians moved down here to the Central Valley of California for the winter. The weather is mild, and the fields fill up with water and become swimming pools. This area is a birdwatcher's paradise during the winter months. We're in the Sierra Foothills, so we don't get the waterfowl that the Central Valley gets. One of the most interesting migratiions here is the robins. During the rest of the year, you see robins one at a time. This time of year, I'll sometimes see a hundred robins in the yard. -Joe Offer- |

21 Dec 05 - 03:32 PM (#1632378) Subject: RE: BS: 85% of birds abandon Canada! From: Peace Most Canadians have a bird or two in the freezer. They didn't leave. We, much like our American neighbours, often elect turkeys to positions of power--for example, Bush and Martin (notice the bird name). Yep. Things is dire. |

Some are being held against their will at detention centres in Quebec and are being watched twenty four hours a day by federal agents. And only because they are French! Talk about profiling! Kind of a Cordon Blue, not yet elevated to Red. I'll be back with a link. |
