Kookaburra sits in old Nanjing

Ratbag23 sent in this lovely one dollar Kookaburra from China. A labourer was exploited for this? Sewing the head on upside down should qualify for an extra beating by the overseer. But for a dollar, never mind the quality, feel the beak.

    What’s the size of this thing? I might be over-tired from standing watch with a shotgun over the house all night to stop farmers from taking my money…but it appears to loom over the dryanda in the background…

    That’s what you might call “quality control”.
    Presumably the importer/wholesaler/distributor likewise neither knows nor cares what the bird actually looks like.
    Obviously another ‘metrocentric twat ©’

    And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
    And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle………….repent now TWOP….the end is nigh!!!

    Hey Lazy Aussie
    I like your new avatar. Strangely enough I was at Camberwell markets (Melbourne) last week and saw a 150th commemorative plate with that swan logo on it. I was going to buy it and send it to you just for larks but the guy wanted $25 for it. He was clearly insane as I don’t think it was that much when it was new.
    At that point I realised that standing in the rain in Victoria, haggling over a commemorative plate for Westen Australia while my two children were about to win the national wingeing title was also bordering on insanity so I walked away.
    (I might go back next week)

    Like buttered bread…..does a Kookaburra land on it’s head if it fell out of a tree or does it land face up ?

    Perhaps Ratbag23 can conduct a scientific experiment without Greenpeace knowing.
