Yesterday I saw a chickadee do a full-on mating dance. It was on top of a picket fence, entertaining two or three girladees. It puffed up and spun, like a tiny prairie chicken or miniature turkey.

Well, I'm assuming. It might've just had rabies or something.

Puffing and whirling in the presence of hens sure sounds like mating behavior to me.

Have you noticed that no matter what their species, males are pretty dumb similar?

Ooh, so is a chickadee not a chicken? I just thought it was a Doris Day Film word for chicken. How exciting!

Maybe the sequel to Snakes on a Plane! will be Rabid Chickadees on a Plane!

It's YOU, Ann. Your unharnessed sexual power causes all creatures about you to engage in a non-stop frenzy of mating behavior. You're a menace to decent society.
