I saw one ingest a half eaten chicken leg a few weeks back. Chippy thief just grabbed the abandoned leg in its beak, looked up, and deep-throat choked down the whole leg bone -- and all the gristly shit attached -- like a magnum dong.

People say you cannot see expressions or emotion on a bird's face. I disagree. A minute later I saw avian regret. There are simple physical constraints that can only be overcome in a non-Euclidean stomach. This however was not the Tardis but a mere mortal beach chook. It hobbled a bit and then awkwardly and with obvious physical distress and difficuity, asymmetrically stumble-flew away into an empty lot.

Chippy thieves, beach chooks.

What's interesting is that there are rice paddies surrounding a train line just down the coast of Taiwan from the village that inspired Spirited Away. The area gets an absurd amount of rain and when inundated, it can look like this. Particularly if vuewed from the road to the west, the coastal backdrop can guve an illusion of water almost stretching out infinitely. One can only speculate that Miyazaki travelled south on his trip and saw this.
