Birds LOOK intelligent. They work together in spreading fire?
Geez, is there anything not out to get us?

“Birds are incredibly intelligent animals.”

A thousand times smarter than bloggers, I’d say.

Everything in the world was fine until some BIRDBRAIN invented fire. Been down hill ever since...

Reminds me of Viking King Harald plundering Sicily who lit birds on fire and released them to fly back to their roosts under the eaves of houses in a town his was laying siege.

Roofs all over town erupted in flames and the people surrendered.
