Greetings Birdland,

My first reaction to your words is a sigh of relief that I'm not the only one puzzled by what sort of creature a "Birdland" might be. In a way, it strikes me as Hobbitlike or Mannish ... almost, but not quite. What is the origin of / history behind the name?

Now then, please permit me a bit of non-Tolkien-related silliness. "Red Shirts in a Star Trek episode?" * shuffles feet a bit * All right, I'll admit to being old enough to know what that refers to. And of course you must know ... * Gandalf eyes you picking up a rock * ... "Be vewy, vewy quiet, I'm hunting wabbits." Or perhaps, "Duck season! Wabbit season! Birdland season!" would be more appropriate? * good-natured grin *
