Birdman, do think dyslexics have the advantage here?

[birdman]

Hadn't thought of that!

By the way... do I take it from your avatar that you've done something new with your hair?

Looks different somehow ;)

PAYLOAD ALSO BE A BIRD

(I've just looked it up on Google and it's is even more of a stinker than I thought it was!)

[robinm]

Got it!.

Broad-billed sapayoa

I managed to get "billed" out of the letters. I then found broad out of what was left. I then did a bit of cheating to find the last word.

Having found a web page about it its name is a lot more interesting than its looks.

[birdman]

Nice one Robin,

Did you check out...

?

[Charles Harper]

Congratulations, Robin-- I was still messing around with 'booby', 'paddle', 'paddy', 'saddle', 'billed', 'paradise', 'rosella', and 'spadebill'-- all in there too!

[robinm]

Thanks guys. A bit of lucky guess work.

Birdman, I found that page too.

[steve_nova]

Funny how I don't seem to contribute much to things intellectual?!

My brain just heats up and I break out in a sweat. I wonder if thats how I lost my hair?
