Halloween costume

Here's an idea for a costume that wouldn't be much trouble.

Get a package of arts and crafts birds such as this one. Twelve birds for $8.00



There are plenty of other birds available in different sizes, and to varying degrees of excellence. The crows are good ones. You don't need very many.

 Buy a little bottle of artificial blood.

Attach the birds to a shirt you don't care about, rip it up, and drizzle the blood.

Mess up your hair and put a bird in it and drizzle blood over your ear.

Boom, Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds.

Too late, going as Where's Waldo.

Halfway down, I had an idea where it was going.

The other way would be the Angry Birds app.

How about a swimming cap closely studded with birds?

And there I was thinking "Put on a robe and go as St. Francis".

I like MamaM's take - that is a much more peaceful path. Plus my hair already looks like that.

Now see - those feathers look like real sparrow feathers.

is there some cruel sparrow death factory in china killing sparrows for silly bird toys?

Plus the robe needn't be all that plush or fresh.

In fact, an old blanket the cat or dog sleeps on would do, complete with pet hair!
