Hi,
It is destined to be a silly question. But please let me know.
I was walking with my boyfriend, and I heard the sound of a bird. So I asked my boyfriend what bird it was. He told me he didn't see the bird, so he didn't know. And then I pointed to the bird for him. But he said, "never point directly to a bird." I asked why not, but he said "You don't want to know."
So why not? I want to know it.

Lol I don't either, maybe he's just screwing with you

LMAO... maybe the bird will think you're pointing and making fun of his ruffled feathers, and will swoop down and peck your eyes out! Like in the movie "The Birds".

Pull your hoodie over your head and run like hell!!

Birds have feelings too, and can be mighty hurt when us humans do stuff, like point at them. They are already insecure, because they can't point back, so have a heart, and don't rub it in.
