Osprey renovating the ol' homestead. How did he/she get that pallet
up on the disused power pole, I wonder? The must be strong birdies!

Old fashioned barn raising?

I think it was probably put there for them - I know in Ontario the wildlife people put pallets in such places for bird like ospreys, herons and the like.

Yes, they do that lots down South.

I was jesting! Of course the pallet was put up there by humans, not
ospreys.

Well, I knew, intellectually you didn't think the birds put it up there, but somehow that fact didn't penetrate the other part of my tiny mind. Later I realised how dumb I must have sounded!!!

Obviously the osprey has a discerning pallet.

It's a simple question of weight ratios! A four pound osprey could not
carry a fifty pound pallet.

An African Swallow and a coconut, on the other hand...
