While walking out to buy lunch I saw a group of mynahs (small black birds found everywhere in Singapore) standing around in a circle making the loudest din. They puffed themselves up and stood as tall as they could in what was apparently an effort to secure leverage of some kind.
We, though non-feathered, hold meetings like that every other day.
Reminds me of the song ... "Birds do it, bees do it, even educated fleas do it ... let's do it. Let's (have a meeting)!"
i think i still prefer birds to men though :}
