Need a bird
I've been watching alot of nature shows lately and have observed how the eskimos will eat a piece of the seal when the catch it to become one with it. Also the indians would eat a piece of the buffalo to join with it. In that vein, I've decided to eat a flamingo. They have security at the local zoo so I was wondering if anyone (especially in Florida) could send me one. Don't pluck it, I'll use the feathers to make my wife a hat.

Why don't you keep simple, maybe something like a turkey vulture. Plenty of them in Texas and who's going to mind you killing/eating one of those.
Do they taste like chicken?

Well you missed out on some Giraffe a couple years back when Mr Stilts, my buddies family pet, died. You should see how big a Giraffe pelt is! LOL

Okay,
I live in Florida, and I'll try to catch one.
Ummmm-I just have one question.
What do I use for bait? Or do I just hit it with the car, flash freeze it and send it to you?

I found this thing in my Flamingo trap, let me know what your address is, so I can send it to you. Doesn't have many feather, though, your wife's hat may be a little sparse...

There are wild flamingos in Mexico and shrimp is their favorite food. So I propose that you cook shredded chicken and pink shrimp together ,serve it as flamingo, (I suggest in a flamingo shaped aspic) and everyone can say..."WOW...it tastes like chicken! silver suz
