A popular attraction in British pubs is a pub quiz.  Generally teams 
will be formed to answer questions on a variety of topics, frequently 
with themed rounds.  Last night I was at the one I generally go to every 
2 weeks when one round linked two themes I have encountered around these 
parts - puns and birds.  Cryptic questions led to answers that were puns 
on the names of species of bird such as "A couple are able - two can 
-toucan" or "a door opener lets us in - key we - kiwi".  I'm no 
ornithologist but my way of thinking helped us ace that round 10/10 on 
the way to overall vistory.
