Birds, birds

One of Eric's fondest memories of Venice as a child was of feeding the birds.

Nothing like actually trying to recreate these memories in the present.

Although the sellers of cones filled with corn are long gone, you can still find a few smart tourists who have brought along there own supply of corn and are willing to share it with you.

If you are lucky you might even get some birds to land on you, perhaps on you head, or even on your shoulder particularly when you are the photographer and don't have any corn.

Funniest moment was when a bird landed on my shoulder without provocation and so I did what any smart photographer would do.

I took a selfie.

The bird complied by looking right at the camera.
Thoughtful of him, really.

Notably absent from the photos is rebecca who has inherited her grandfather jarvis' love of birds.
