What a face!

I found this picture via Boing Boing, and just had to blog this one. I believe this is a Dodo bird, but the beak looks a bit different that what I saw in illustrations. Doesn't he have a fabulous face? He is part of the collection at the natural history museum in Vienna. A visitor recently posted some photos of the displays on Flickr. Some interesting specimens. Click on the photo to see more.

perfect name! His beak looks like those things you put in shoes to keep their shape...
