During the heavy storms we had a few weeks back, my sister was tremendously concerned about a trapped bird in a tree that turned out to be a bag!
We have a relationship where we take the piss out of each other and our facebooks are full of insults etc. We are very close, and love laughing about it.
Anyway, since then I have been taking photos of carrier bags stuck in trees, stuck to barbed wire etc and uploading to Facebook.
I need your help to name some of these "birds".
So far we have:
Bagpie
Carrier pigeon
Wired warbler

And also called her a great tit.
I know I'm being unreasonable! But it's hilarious! Please help!!! GrinGrinGrin

This is like me and my sister, a real piss taking relationship 🤣🤣 just a thought, I've heard of cats getting trapped in trees but never a bird 🤩wouldn't it just fly away?

That's why it makes this even funnier! She was convinced the "bird" was stuck 🙈

I remember that. She thought it was dead

Then the woman who was really concerned about a squirrel in the tree. Despite numerous posters saying that’s where they are supposed to be, she wanted to call the rspca and everything
