This guy is for the birds. A Glasgow, Scotland, man who thought he spotted an ill-looking, exotic, blue and white bird on his deck in need of rescue posted pictures of the would-be creature to Facebook along with his plan to save it.

But the joke was on Stephen Maguire, 39, when he carefully approached the “feathered friend” — only to discover it wasn’t a bird at all, but a blue and white scrub brush.

His wife joked, “the lockdown is affecting us all.”

This Florida community doesn’t need a rooster. A Brevard County woman was arrested after she allegedly repeatedly harassed neighbors by screaming profanitie­s about politician­s and ringing a loud bell daily at 5 a.m. Deputies were called to the Melbourne home 20 times in the past two years regarding Linda Wildes, including in early December, when her neighbor complained Wildes was interrupti­ng her child’s remote learning.

What a grave mistake. Two Florida men accused of robbing the final resting places of veterans told authoritie­s they did so because “the spirit is much stronger in a hero.”

Brian Montalvo Tolentino, 43, and Juan Burgos Lopez, 39, allegedly broke into four graves in Polk County, removing body parts they used to build a shrine.

When it comes to gambling, the sky’s the limit.

DraftKings is taking wagers on aerial-drone races.

Betting on the Drone Racing League is legal in Colorado, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Tennessee and West Virginia, with regulatory approvals pending in additional states.

A shawarma shop in Moscow was forced to close a day after it opened following an outcry over its Josef Stalin-themed branding.

The Stalin Doner shop featured a portrait of the Communist dictator above its front door.
