Super Pooper Penguins!
I've just come across an interesting bit of information. Certain species of penguin can propel a turd horizontally a distance of two body lengths. That's the equivalent of a human managing 12ft or so. Impressive! Does anyone else know of any such avian feats?

Cheers for that. It doesn't all have to revolve around bird crap though.

Moving up to the top end of the Alimentary canal young Fulmars can certainly chuck a gutload a sizeable distance -more accurate than a smartbomb & twice as deadly!

You're right about that. I copped an eyeful climbing in Scotland a few years back.
