Quicksand Fans

Pigeons being sucked down in "dry quicksand" (grain, actually) ant-lion-style in an odd video from Russia...And I mean weird. some seem to dive in headfirst!

The grain is intended for making bread....Must be some interesting tasting stuff.

You really don't want to know what makes it through the sifting in a load of corn.. Or any grains for that matter...

Just a little extra protein to the bread...

You should see what happens after the big cooling towers at the plant I work at have been idle for a while. When they startup after an extended shut down there's a veritable H-Bomb of pigeon parts hurled into the air.

That's it. I'm off bread, cold pidgeon-- err... cold turkey.

Careful,,,, that may end up becoming the dry sand version of a busload of cheerleaders in quicksand.

I want to watch the video... but I probably shouldn't... it might be one of those 'brain bleach' moments...

After seeing that makes you want to eat glutton free
