ungrateful birds
When I lived in the UK I was driving back from work along a country lane very fast when I hit a pheasant.
When I looked back in the rear view it was struggling to get up and looking a tad ropey, so I pulled over and decided to put' it out of it's misery'!
The road -up till then had been deathly quiet all the way home.
As I was wringing this birds neck in the middle of the road a funeral cortege appeared -I had both my hands on it's neck so I couldn't wave! They passed slowly by -all eyes on me and the mangled bird.
Talk about poor timing!
