OOoooo. Maybe I didn't see the feet and thus they may actually be webbed! That would mean that they not only fly but also swim. Maybe the horns are hollow and they can stay submerged for hours using the horns as a snorkle, lying in wait for an unsuspecting SG to walk past.

(Maybe a slight edit is in order...)

Hey, whatever floats your boat!

I understand that the submergable flying bongos are kin to a platypus, and thus would explaine the poison quills, by this article:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platypus

They do have a natural enemy besides the SG, and that would be the burrowing alligators, but they are almost extinct!

Well it would explain the population reduction of the burrowing alligators if you concider that if the webbed feet are like a platypus and thus have a poison spur. And add in the throwable poison quills, A Flying, Submersable Bongo would be a threat anywhere it happens to be.

Stay tuned to the trip report! (Don't you hate it when radio stations do that? :) )

Randy and Pirate - thanks for keeping us up to date on the evolution of the poison-quill-throwing, web-footed, poison-spurred, hollow-horned, submersible, flying Bongos. :rolleyes:

Wombat - you continue to delight and frustrate us with your tidbit by tidbit trip report. You are such a tease!! :D:

You are welcome from my end, but we are just reapeating "FACTS" as we know them,! (hehehe)

I agree, Wombat has a "flair"* for the ability to build suspense!

We're not in Kansas anymore.

I have a "Mini Me" available if you want to try this. :zazu:

There is a guy who works at the Inn Between who I swear looks like Milton. Has anyone else seen him, or am I just crazy?
