Some places have pheasant in the corner shop.

We have stone curlews at Lidl.

Ah, I'm quite impressed by that. I do like curlews so much, although stone curlews are such funny looking beggars.

They are, aren't they.

And the Scots are having to check under parked vehicles for pufflets.

Well, it was hardly a bird, but a tenant in the house I inherited from my grandfather found a raccoon sleeping under the bonnet of her car.

We live in a highly-urbanized region. Even for a suburb, that was ... unusual. Ferrets, yes. Raccoons? Not so much!

(And for the record, the best I can find in front of my nearest Lidl is a free parking space close to the entry/exit ...)

Unusual? I should think it unique.

At any rate, extraordinary.
