LOL.!!
You are all very kind in giving this a bash, I know it can be a busy time for all of you. Some good answer here but seeing as Christmas is (mostly) for the kids, I may have added a couple of youngsters in at numbers 4 & 6, just to throw you all off the scent. Number 4 may not be quite as ‘everyday’ as its name may suggest. I also think Santa may have been a bit peckish through the night as a few of the puzzles appear to have had the odd chomp or two taken out of them. Perhaps he’s given us all a few additional hints in ID’ing the Mince Pie Mysteries.!! I have to go and help arrange another bird now, so answers will have to wait ‘til later. Thanks again for trying this, it's just a bit of festive fun.
Hello Paul,
this, again, is so cute! And the hints from this morning, with the half-eaten mince-pies made me burst out laughing. I tried not to look at th hints, except for no. 6. And do you know? From the beginning on I somehow had a feeling that this one had to be a youngster. Here is my try, but it is a hard one:
1.House Martin
6.Starling
7.Fritillary
8.Puffin
10.Mallard
Merry Christmas to all of you! Please think a bit of me tonight, because I'll have to work again.
