@nailheadparty In which you give a leading newspaper your professional opinion as an augurer, only to find they have hired two haruspices to say the exact opposite!!

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes! 🤯 Even for me as a nest researcher, these are the craziest bird nests I've ever seen. Today my paper came out on this rebellious behaviour. And it's like telling a joke...
