Fantasy Birding


With autumn just round the corner and the SOoTY 2011 award still up for grabs, I thought this educational flyer might prove handy?

I particularly like the title of this pamphlet: A toolkit for finding slender-billed curlews.

I'm more inclined to believe that a flippin miracle would probably be more useful than a toolkit in finding said target?

As for the 'actions to take if you believe you have seen a slender-billed curlew' 5 points to remember!

1) Be careful not disturb the bird (that'll be from the sound of you moaning loudly from the pain of a spontaneous heart attack combined with the gaseous expulsion of your entire body contents through your arse as you find a s-b c on your local patch).
2) Take a photograph (personally I'd ring Rembrandt and get him to come down and paint the bloody thing)
3) Take detailed notes (to be honest you'd be better off spending your time writing a new Noddy novel)
4) Contact key local experts (hmmm)
5) Report sighting to the slender-billed curlew Working Group (or you could save yourself the time and simple book yourself into the nearest pyschiatric hospital)
