Oystercatchers

I have always wanted to listen to the Oystercatchers.  Do they catch oysters?  Does it matter?  They are the banshees of the bird world.  Their windscreen-shattering skreeks will drill a hole through any amount of earwax.  Not only that, but they are a delicious white-and-black.  If I sink my teeth into them, the colour scheme will be perfect.

Though I have been stalking up and down, seeking whom I may devour on the verdant banks of a northern river, the score remains Halibut - NIL.  Tomorrow I disguise myself as a mollusc.
