This from Reuters:
An Australian kookaburra bird is undergoing personal training after growing too fat to fly because she ate too many sausages.

The kookaburra got into trouble with her weight when residents at a Sydney park began feeding her sausages at barbecues.

The porky kookaburra weighed in at 565 grams (1.2 pounds), nearly 40 percent heavier than a normal adult bird, rendering her so unfit she couldn't fly.

"Out in the wild she'd eat a whole small animal such as a mouse or skink, but butcher's sausages are just too much of a good thing," said Gemma Watkinson, Sydney's Taronga Zoo wildlife hospital nurse.

A Sydney resident brought the bird to the zoo after spotting dogs chasing her along the ground.

"The kookaburra's been down at the rehabilitation aviary for a couple of weeks on a special 'lite n'easy' diet designed by our bird keeper," said Watkinson.

Following a rigorous exercise regime up to three times a day with a personal trainer, the kookaburra is winning her battle of the bulge, but still a little more weight to shed before being ready to be returned to her native habitat ....
 
Replace "Australian" by "Canadian, American or British" and "kookaburra" by person and that would sound like a lot of people I know...
 
Mmmmm sausages!!  I don't blame the bird one bit, although the idiots shouldn't have been feeding it.
 
Everyone knows sausages are bad for kookaburras!! What a bunch of dumb asses!

It takes a lot of kookaburra to make enough sausages for the Army.ca staff brunch.    ;D

It seems as though this kookaburra was trying to make it easy on the chef and make himself into an Australian Turducken....

That's crazy, I made turducken one year for Christmas and it was so rich you couldn't eat much. I couldn't imagine eating that much bacon. Heartstopper for sure.....

I bet the Kookaburra's beak is watering with that!  Not me though, my arteries are clogging just looking at that thing.

Here's another artery clogger:

Nothing beats hearing the laugh of a kookaburra in a near by gum tree, while at a sausage sizzle with good mates and cold beer, all on a hot January evening!

Both a sentance with the key words, and a fact to actually see/hear/taste and smell the snags and beer, and hear that retarded bird.

Something all too often I experience right in my own backyard.
