raven/crow/eagle

right, when I was little, I was actually told (and presumably convinced) that if I pouted, a large bird would land on my lip. I don't remember quite which bird, but hey.

then again, I also believed some 'bigger' boys when they told me that vultures would attack and eat my kid sister when she was in her pram. I reckon that's why I always ran with her. and maybe why it seemed like a good idea to push her down huge ramps and things...
