#1 Don't they still race homing pigeons it that part of the world? Kind of a 'hold-over' from the 'Colony Days'.

#2 A pigeon, spying? Does that make him a stool pigeon? And who ratted him out--the rat? Or did the canary sing? Maybe it was the pig who squealed. I suspect a snake in the grass.

Looks like a job for . . . Secret Squirrel!
