Fid vs Soda Can - a visual aid in size of all species

[kcbee]

Marlene, I love Skittles expression! Haha he is so not happy about this soda can thing!!

 

[falsk]

Hahaha--this thread is cracking me up. I love each bird's expression being near this strange can-object... some are scared... some are curious.

I also like how artistic some people are getting. I need to do this tomorrow when Bee gets up. ^__^

I bet someone at work has an empty soda can they drink and toss I wish I didn't drink soda, it is the one thing I am literally addicted to (diet sodas - it's the caffeine and the fizz, yum!), and trying to find the right time to wean myself off of it.
