Lets hope these money waisters never get up around the roads in the Cape area.

They would have a full corroners investigation into the dead animals/birds up around there.

Do they not know that birds do have a life expectancy just like us mere mortals.

I shake my head in disbelief at some of the money wasted inside some of these gov department.

And then they wonder why there is job cuts,because OF THIS STUPID CRAZY GOING ON'S .

Duh · Guru

Good one Spida.....Cah, Cah, Cah !!!! wink biggrin

I have never been close to hitting a crow, they've always been too smart for the average car, unlike other bird life....

I dont' think I've ever seen one dead by the side of the road come to think of it. confuse

Love it!!!

True story. I (and my offsider) were en route to a court case in a rural town. We came across a few crows on the road who decided that they weren't moving. A quick blast on the siren established our superior right of way and they reluctantly hopped off the road........all bar one. This crow was obviously part of some subversive group and stood his ground causing me to brake and swerve. The crow decided to be a martyr to his cause and no matter what I did, said crow countered every evasive manoeuvre I tried. However there was no thump or puff of feathers and we figured that the forces of evil crows had been thwarted by the forces of niceness and we continued on to our court case. The encounter had left us a little short of time but fortunately and empty car space was right outside the court door. With appropriate decorum, we hurried into the court and plead our case. During said case, the clerk interrupted proceedings and whispered frantically in the magistrate's ear. The magistrate pondered for a time and stood our case down for a short period. He then called all 'plods' to chambers for a discussion. He suggested we return to our police cars and examine them. Upon return to my vehicle I found that the terrorist crow had succeeded in his evil and cunning plan. There he was jammed beak and head first into the grille with wings still flapping in a feeble yet final blow against the forces of freedom and democracy, looking for all the world like some Andy WORHOL demented hood ornament. A crowd of bystanders had also gathered, including our defendants who we were prosecuting for a cruelty to animals charge.

This was so just like some of these government dept would do.

I deal with them all the time when I am work,so this was just another stupid enquiry into nothing .

I was thinking.

Apologies for the snips Keith, on the subject of grille decorations, I was at a roadhouse on the Nullabor when a large tourist bus pulled up, stuck in the grill was a huge wedge tail eagle (not moving). When the driver got out and saw it he and one of the passenger started to pull it out, the eagle came too and started struggling and when freed flew off into the distance.

I hit one (eagle) once on the front top of the campervan I had then near Uluru, hit the top of the front roof with a thump and when I pulled up it had gone, must have bounced off....
