8. Please let me know what further assistance I might be to you all. I
hope I have been able to help you to see a little bit better than you
could do on your own in your benighted troglodyte's eyries.


Who do you think you are? God? The Special One? LOL :-)


Whoever he thinks he is, that's a wonderfully mixed ornithological
metaphor!

Troglodytes are people who live in holes, hence the scientific name of
the wren, which makes a spherical nest often in a nook or cranny, is
Troglodytes troglodytes. An eyrie is the name given to a nest of, e.g.,
an eagle, placed high up, e.g., in a tree or on a cliff ledge.


You mean you really can't see it?
Well there's a surprise!
