image movement with rotations

i have an image of a bird that moves randomly all over the screen
it moves right left up down diagonally ect (RANDOMLY)

i need it so when the image moves a certain direction the image rotates with it
so... a bird moves down so the nose of the bird also should look down
and when it moves up the nose of the bird also should look up
can someone please help me??!!

That's easy; do you already have the images of the bird in each one of the 8 directions, or do you want VB to draw them for you? Because making VB draw them for you can be a bit hard ;)
