[Leica] a rare bird...

[hopsternew at gmail.com (Geoff Hopkinson)]

This sighting may be of interest to the National Audubon Society. You have
collected a very rare specimen there of Herrus Wildlificus Photographus.
There have been sporadic sightings in various National Park areas over the
years and unconfirmed reports of a colony in California.
These may be identified by their distinctive snowy white plumage under the
beak and are one of the few Avian species known to use tools in pursuit of
their prey including black sticks. These are levelled at the prey animal in
some ritual not yet understood by ornithologists.

Cheers
Geoff
