   Ooh, first comment on Peanuts!
   Linus really shouldn’t pat birds on the head, they carry disease, but given that its a comic and he probably won’t get sick, I don’t see why he shouldn’t, so long as the birds like it too.

   That’s pretty much Lucy’s credo: “What about me?”

   That’s telling her birdies…That is so sweet to see Linus petting the cute little birds on their heads…I used to feed a blue jay peanuts and it got to the point that he’d let me know when he showed up that day by looking in the screen door and squak…so cute

   I always loved the rich history of Peanuts. Thirty years after this strip was drawn, Schulz did one with Rerun patting birds on the head. When Lucy rushed in to stop him, he told her that Linus had taught him to.

   The way how Linus interacts with the birds is adorable.

    I agree with Jess. Whenever I went to Atlantic City I used to bring a 5 pound bag of birdseed (for the pigeons) and 2 loaves of bread for the sea gulls. Those pigeons were the friendliest wild birds ever. I would sit on the bench and as soon as I open the birdseed I would have a lap full of birds. On my shoulders on my lap, all over my feet and also a few times on my wrist eating out of my hands. The people I usually went with called me Birdman. One time during the summer one little girl wanted to take a picture with the birdman and the father took a couple of pictures of us and gave me $5. after that some more kids wanted to take pictures with the birdman and the parents usually gave me $5 (one $10) for my trouble. (Trouble? I was having fun.) When I ran out of birdseed and bread I wound up between $100 and $150. I can remember the exact amount. With that I got lunch at the buffet there and after went into the casino. I went one machine put 3 quarters in and hit $25, Ok ye machine. I go to the other end of the line to that last machine and another $25. The lady that got off said she was on it for an 45 minutes. My point is that you wont get sick from petting birds on the head. If that was true I would have been perpetually sick from all the times I fed the birds in Atlantic City.

    And good for the birds for sticking their tongues out at Lucy.
    I would have done that too and blow a raspberry in her face.

    Lucy’s lucky that they don’t take the typical form of bird revenge, an overhead bombing campaign, if you follow my meaning.
