Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
Gonna grab some afternoon delight
My motto's always been 'when it's right, it's right'
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night?
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day
And we know the night is always gonna be there any way

Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight

Started out this morning feeling so polite
I always though a fish could not be caught who wouldn't bite
But you've got some bait a waitin' and I think I might try nibbling
A little afternoon delight
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight

Please be waiting for me, baby, when I come around
We could make a lot of lovin' 'fore the sun goes down

Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight

Afternoon delight!

I just started to ask if the celebrity birds were those vultures Bill and Hillary. You beat me to it. :-)

Ahem. That's Virgina's celebrity Bird, not New York's. And he's certainly no hawk.

Get a room!

I had to laugh when reading this:

A media frenzy erupted over the birds' eviction by wealthy residents angry over the droppings and half-eaten pigeons littering the elegant building's entrance.

I guess they would prefer whole homeless to half-eaten pigeons in the entrance?

Nope. Just the celebrities who had their nest removed.

You can see her flying by, looking like the best thing that ever had wings...but you know that somehow, somewhere, some hawk is saying "I have had it up to HERE with her CRAP!!!"

I don't know if it was one of these hawks, but I remember walking through Central Park a few years back when, not more than 20 feet away from me, a bird of prey swooped down and grabbed a squirrel right out of a tree.

Not something you expect to see in NYC.

The wealthy neighbors are probably ALL liberals. They are all for saving the environment. They are all for everyone one else paying the cost to save the environment. But they are just like the Kennedy's and not wanting a major wind farm off the coast of their estate. Like all liberals say, WE ARE ALL FOR SAVING THE ENVIRONMENT EXCEPT WHEN IT'S IN THEIR OWN BACKYARD.

You think that`s weird, I live in Queens NYC and last summer I was sitting by my fire escape feeding the squirrels who climb up it using a tree. I turned my back for a second, and what should I see but a racoon!! He scared the hell out of me, and I fed him an apple. Don`t ask me where he hides. Look, if you don`t believe me, I took pictures with my digital camera. I don`t live near any parks and there are no gardens around me. Now I`m putting banannas out hoping I will get a monkey.
