Interesting bird! I'm not even going to try to pronounce its name!

not sure about other parts of the world but down here we have white winged choughs and here it is pronounced "chuff"

Very good - chuff is pronounceable.

Archi, it's pronounced "chow." At least that's how it sounds to me.

Elegant, sharp shot of the female mallard, Paul. I like her lighter color against the dark green background.

Beautiful starling shot, Mark! The average person doesn't realize what a pretty bird they are.

Stellar shot of this least sandpiper, Shalu. It appears to be chatting with you. :-)

Thank you very much, Mike!

Now what am I going to do? I thought I had an answer... :-(

It's like time. Ask someone what time it is and you will know what time it is. But ask two people what time it is, and you won't know what time it is.

It's like the time. Ask someone what time it is and you will know what time it is. But ask two people what time it is, and you won't know what time it is.

The internet seems to be split on this one. In Australia, as Graham said, it's definitely 'chuff'.


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.
