The Eurasian Wryneck

10,000 Birds

Unfortunately, my original theory that these snails were kept as pets by the wryneck (after all, unlike for me, keeping a cat as a pet is not very sensible for a bird) was dismissed by more qualified birders who suggested that the bird was probably too exhausted from migration to get rid of the snails. Shame on the people who do this.
