Good grief! 12 pages yesterday. And most of them about the birds and the bees - or the birds. I'm copying Wattle's post (the last one on yesterday's Update thread) which may throw some light on the topic. (Glad someone asked; I wasn't sure myself but you feel such a twit.....)
From Wattle: Now I've finished chuckling at all the posts, I'll answer the delicate question posed. Generally, birds have just one multi-purpose opening, male and female, both under the tail. The female holds her tail to one side, and the male curls his body forward until there is, well, a 'bum kiss'! It can be lightning fast and still be very effective. ;-) I say 'generally', because male ducks, swans etc can be more elaborately endowed, but females are always the same (I think).
Thank you Wattle, I think..... :-)
Oh, and the LG nest is empty; Marge is at LOTL
Lindybird we are goingf to have an egg soon LOL
Everything in life is speaking in spite of its apparent silence.
tish - I'm wriggling in my seat as if I'm going to lay it myself ........!
You made me laugh so loudly Lindybird how many of us can say we were not wriggling?
Bet you all are - anticipation is a great thing. Like being in the queue for ice cream.

And Soosin.
Good evening all you expectant viewers out there.
She's definitely acting like an Osprey about to lay an egg isn't she sitting over the bowl like she is. How long has she been there? I think she's a wee bit wriggly and uncomfortalbe the way her tail keeps twitching.
All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy. Spike Milligan
Now that was spooky I mentioned her name (soosin) and she appeared.
I am scared to move.
