Longtime readers know I like to post stories about birds doing clever things, like making tools or robbing car washes, it isn’t much of a surprise to see I’m all over Zed’s post about birds jousting. Once the great avian uprising happens, we’re all going to laugh about how worried we were about bird flu.

Kirk must have realized that we haven’t marvelled at the cleverness of birds lately, so he sent in a story from the car wash (talking ’bout the car wash…), wherein a car wash operator was convinced that his employees were stealing from the coin-operated machines, so he set up a little stakeout, and what do you suppose he found? Well, you may recall that we mentioned clever birds a very short while ago, and indeed it was clever birds that he found – one would actually crawl into the machine and pull out quarters (possibly because they were shiny), while others would take the coins and fly away. Now, consider for a second that it’s not just the shinyness that attracted the birds – maybe the animal kingdom has a bankroll! OK, maybe not, but birds are clever.
