A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, unless it is the burning bush, in that case the value of your bird just went up!!

Summary

This quote is a playful twist on the well-known saying "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush." The original saying means that it is better to have something of value now than to risk losing it in an attempt to gain more. However, the modified version adds humor by introducing the idea of the burning bush from biblical mythology. Here, the burning bush is considered to have great significance, so if the bird lands on such a valuable bush, the bird itself becomes more valuable. It is a lighthearted way to suggest that unexpected circumstances can impact the value of what we possess.
