Smuggler’s underwear goes to the birds

Dutch man busted with live hummingbirds sewn into his pants

In Australia, tight-fitting men’s swim shorts are known as “budgie smugglers,” but in the Netherlands, it appears they prefer hummingbirds. A Dutch man was arrested this week after border guards in French Guinea found more than a dozen tiny hummingbirds sewn into his underwear. The live birds were individually wrapped in cloth and tucked into little pouches inside the man’s pants. He was spotted by airport guards acting strangely, possibly due to the rows of tiny beaks pointing into his crotch.
