Butcherbirds are an Australian family of pied, crow-like birds that run a meat delicatessen franchise. The Common Names Committee noted this misnomer and adjusted the name to Bearded Reedling. I am still left with the nagging feeling of a job half-done. Can a Secretarybird take shorthand? Unless you know different. One more thing.

Beyond the environmental impacts of meat production there is a basic ethical issue involved. I suspect that meat consumption would decline dramatically under such a code; it would certainly make many of us less hypocritical.
