Bird catcher.


When Miao was young and spry, he was able to snatch a bird in flight. He held it tight in between his teeth but we bopped his head so he'd let the bird go. Our concern wasn't for the bird but for Miao; we didn't want him to get sick -- who knows where that bird's been. He also almost caught a rooster once (or was it a chicken?), which was running around our driveway. These days, the only birds Miao can hope to catch are the stuffed ones thrown at him, like this beanie baby eagle.
