Oldest known wild bird gives birth at age 62.

I'm more amazed that people are capable of keeping track of how old wild birds are, but it seems to be just a case of a bird with an old ankle tag that got noticed giving birth because it's in a wildlife refuge on an island.

"Giving birth", strange way of putting it, but I suppose laying egg sounds less of an amazing feat. A change of life egg.

Now I'm wondering do birds go through menopause?

Funny. I hadn't noticed that.

Bird lays an egg ... is silly news, but it's the lead story at The Washington Post.

Oldest known bird. However -- man knows very very little about the life spans of such birds.

Tote That Barge

The first million miles are the hardest,
After that it's a piece a' cake;
The first young'un hatched was the dearest,
The thirty fifth was a mistake.

Like we Boomers have been saying... 62 is the new 26.

Hey did you see "Watch What Happens Live" last night?

Brandi Granville revealed that this bird used a surrogate.
