Well....You seem to have confirmed what Matey at 'the owl trust/sanctuary ' said, Nobby. :)

At Techno Towers......We've just taken on 6 former 'free range' battery hens....(this was yesterday)......I really can't quite decide whether hens are even more stupid than sheep. =)
It's a close run thing.

Certainly most sheep and hens would be beaten in an intelligence test by a half-brick.

Dearie, dearie me. X_X

It's not worth it, all you get is a little pin badge and an 'intellectual' magazine sent to you every quarter...

Do I detect the Dark Lord has been inducted as a member of our intellectual elite?  Perhaps the world is not doomed, and he will find a way for us pass unscathed through these troubled  times! Praised be the Dark Lord!

On the other hand, it might be Milady's pin badge.

Like the advert, Bill !!   :-bd  :)

(Every so often I try and find the advert for (I think it was) Bud Lite from the Superbowl, a good few years back.
I found that one hilarious.....But then, I often have a very childish sense of humour.) :-[)

It hadn't occurred to me to place figure requests here.

Can the good readers recommend a model for an airborne flock of birds. 10 or 15mm.

Type not important, anything between crows and vultures would do.
There are unconfirmed suggestions that the originals may have been swallows, but they're a bit small.

Well, surely that depends on whether they were African or European swallows . . .

Given the location I'd presume African, but I wouldn't stake my life on it.

I have to admit, I thought they were the same.

What's the difference, chaps ?

Don't they just go to Africa for their holidays?
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Techno

I thought they just 'bounced' back and forth from Africa to Europe each year ?

'Ours', in the pole barn, will be leaving in the not too distant future...that's always sad to see them getting ready to go back to warmer climes......Then wonderful to see them back the next year.
