Bird!

At long last... here he is!

First an introduction. This is Bird. I met Bird my senior year of college. I don't remember how exactly he came to live in my bedroom or how the tradition started, but Bird has now been around the world and has photos to prove it. A few rules have developed:

1. Photos must be taken of Bird at locations that are representative or typical of an area or easily recognizable by the average global citizen or, in some cases, a narrower sector of the population (but still recognizable/significant). This supresses the urge to take a picture of photogenic Bird at every last temple, sign, or ruin.

2. Don't waste film. This isn't compose 20 shots and take the best one. This is take a photo, blurry or not, and that's the photo. Of course, this has changed slightly with the acquisition of a digital camera. Now we attempt to stifle the urge to take and take and take and then delete and delete.

Anyway, here are Bird's photos from the last 9 months.
