With all that hair? They probably thought they'd found Nesting Nirvana. Besides, one of the reasons magicians pull pigeons or doves out of a hat instead of something else is they will lie very still and don't bite. (that tidbit came from a former magician)

That story reminded me of an old joke:
A guy loves his pet bird, and takes it everywhere with him. One night he decides to see a movie, and naturally brings it along. He approached the window of the movie theater with the bird on his shoulder, and asks for two tickets. The girl at the counter wants to know who is going in with him. He replies, "Well, my bird, of course!"
The girl tells him that he can't take an animal into the theater, so he goes around the corner, and stuffs it into his pants. He returns to the window, buys one ticket and goes in.
Inside the theater, the bird starts to get hot and begins to squirm, so the man unzips his pants so it can stick its head out and watch the movie.
Sitting next to him are two women. The one closest to the guy nudges her companion and whispers, "Lucy, this man over here has just unzipped his pants!"
Her companion whispers back, "Oh, don't worry about it. If you've seen one, you've seen them all."

"I know, but this one's eating my popcorn!!"
