You have never dealt with an angry moorhen have you?

Come to think of it I don't remember seeing any other kind.

Still better than a good-tempered swan though....

Dear Sirs,

I wish to claim my prize in the Find A Happy Moorhen Picture Competition:

[www.moodyowners.net]

It may be happy, but I bet it is just happy that it is angry.

Gah, I have scars from an angry swan.

I'm not going to sleep tonight, am I?

Sorry Kitten....

And I am not so sure that moorhen is happy as much as psychotic...

Well, have you ever known a moorhen that wasn't psychotic?

Points out that many people would, at a push, eat a moorhen egg but no moorhen has ever eaten a baby.

Points out famous Australian phrase "Your Baby took my dingo" - anything is possible. It may be extremely improbable, but ...

Not a whole one, perhaps. A coot, might manage it, though

Chocolate most commonly comes in dark, milk, and white varieties, with cocoa solids contributing to the brown coloration. I like chocolate any chocolate branch...delicious!!!

Don't blame me if you get Moorhen pie in your welcome pack - I fear its more than likely.

I seriously hope he gets it right in his face. And with the moorhen still living.

This is what his post is about: [en.wikipedia.org]

I have psychological scars still from an experience in being subject to a gang attack by Canada geese in 1981.

I would not put it past these littler buggers to attack anything, so beware.

My father said that with dogs that if you could put your knuckled fist between the base of the ears of a dog then its skull volume was big enough to hold a brain that could be trained and trusted as far as people were concerned, given that the dog had not been subjected to any experiences that would tend to make liable to over react given a repeat of the circumstances.

I don't know of any birds that have skull volumes large enough to hold a brain that size, so don't trust any of the sods.

PS: How can you tell that Azaria's dingo wasn't Italian?

It didn't eat the pastor.

Does brain size really matter?

Glad I've been on the side of the birds.
