One man is as good as another
and maybe a damn sight better.

Remember the blckbird that laid a nest in the Christmas tree in Limerick about a month ago ?. The tree and nest remain in possition and yesterday the Irish Independent had a close up colour picture of the male blackbird about to feed one of the baby chicks.
