Hi Hesk

Actually - it's not as bad as it sounds! We used to have "May processions" around the school grounds - including an extensive market garden maintained by the nuns' gardeners. They would trap and hang up dead crows at the end of each row of produce to warn off the survivors and protect the crop. Curiously enough, I became a serious birdwatcher in later life - but lost my faith... ;>)
That hymn was a standard at the time, of course
