Weirdos


Why do people steal birds' eggs? Why indeed? Just when I was becoming increasingly jaded and thought I'd heard it all - a crime I never knew existed!
To most of us, eggshells are the remnants of an English breakfast or something to paint on Easter morning. But to a small group of collectors, they are a dangerous and unlawful obsession. Why do they steal rare birds' eggs?

    I wouldn't have the 1st idea what to do with a rare bird's egg... What a strange hobby/crime.

  2. Thanks, sweetie, and I'm relieved to hear you're not an egg thief.
