view of the birds eye

The girls have this playmat with a mechanically tweeting-and-flapping bird attached to it's arch. It looks, I must say, constantly surprised. And they love it.

I'm waiting for it to have one of those battery-operated meltdowns, when the last bit of bird strength it has goes into that final animatronic tweet.
