738 - Birdy Num-Num

DISCLAIMER: 
This is not a real bird!
Never put any live animal in your oven!
 
 
 
 
Some survival guides suggest that all birds are edible.  That doesn't mean that they may be palatable, however.  Recent studies suggest that a few rare birds in Papua New Guinea may have poisonous eggs, so all Papua New Guinean JSVB readers ought to stick to supermarket eggs for now.  Also eating non-game birds out of season most likely will break the law in most jurisdictions.
 
The bird in my oven is not a real bird.  We have a couple of plastic decorative parrots in our kitchen.  Impelled by gravity, one broke loose of its tape restraint and fell directly into the pasta pot.  I put the bird in the oven on very low heat to dry it off.  I took the picture and posted it because JSVB needs more pictures.
