Hello Dali: A Smile For Monday ... Before the Morons

Before we get to the Dumb People, here's this guy that my father, who volunteers at the Oregon Coast Aquarium, sent to me: an Inca Tern, normally found along the western South American coast.

That’s all well and good, but I like it’s Salvador Dali-esque face and that "smile."

  1. I wonder if twisted mustaches will be back in style now. I could probably let my white stash grow out.

  2. I agree with you Bob! And they should name him Salvador Dali me thinks.

    Reminds me of a bird found here several years back on the grounds of a owl, funnily enough, called little owl. A very small breed of owl and was taken to the refuge. Turns out it is native in Britian!!!!

  3. With Dad living so far away, how can he watch over and guide his obstreperous son Bob?

  4. It IS very Dali-esque! Years ago I had a book of photos by Philippe Halsman of Dali and his famous mustache. He could have spoofed this bird and it would have fit right in.

  7. Looks a mite like a grey suited penguin. One artist has had a fish named after him - the Picasso Triggerfish https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagoon_triggerfish - I got "attacked" by one, all of 1 1/2" long while swimming in about 12" of water. Truly the prettiest fish I've ever seen
