    LOL, this guy is just from the shallower end of the gene pool. He’s trying, but just not getting there! :)
    This is a cool image, really shows the nature of the beakfaces.

    maintaining a disguise is always a difficult venture, I know how he feels, beakfaces for world domination

    Great!!

    Well he`s tired because he`s a young “Beak-Face” and therefore is always under the pump

    (as all young Beak-Faces are) with rigorous training regimes from the older wiser

    “Master Beak-Faces”

    His days consists of eating, sleeping and training…only when he has earned enough

    “Determination Feathers”

    Is he then allowed to grow his wings and enter

    “Battle Flight School” or “Hunter Gatherer School”

    Wich involves also very rigorous technical training…but less strength training and luckily some rest and recreation time…

    “Beak-Faces” are ranked by the colour of their beaks a very high ranking

    “Hunter Gatherer Beak-Face” can be viewed here

    He’s another little fatty, so he must have just entered the school and he can’t hack the pace. Maybe his parents bought him a spot in this prestigious school.
    So a red beak is like a ‘P’ plate? haha or a ‘trainer’ beak??
    Thanks everyone. Haha shallow end Damian…he’d be floating on the top! All that blubber…

    Got to leave the bubble now for a bit…my laptop is overheating me! Away with it!

    Haha, he’s simply tired because he spent all that time making a beak and coat of feathers, only to have the Aussie sun melt the glue.

    Your style is so good.

    He’s maybe knackered because of a lack of oxygen!
    Fantastic work!

    I have to say that I think this looks fantastic when it’s enlarged. He also looks good for carrying a few extra pounds … makes him look cuddlier I suppose :-)

    He might have very few feathers but he is still highly strokable!
