Rare 'Smiling' Bird Photographed For First Time

The rare recurve-billed bushbird, recently rediscovered by scientists in Colombia after a 40-year absence, sports a curving beak that gives the illusion of an enigmatic smile. This photograph is the first ever taken of a live bushbird.

Pfft. That's nothing. I have a pic of a smiling duck. An ugly smiling duck, but smiling just the same.

I am not sure of seeming a smile... It is more like a kind of knife!
