Dear Bird Talk, Some time ago, when you started a puzzle page, I wrote you and asked if you or your readers, had a copy of a puzzle “who owns the tiger”. And now here it is, “who owns the fish”, changed but the same puzzle. It took me about 20 minutes to get the […]

Dear Bird Talk, Thank you, CSA members and non-members from Canada and Florida, who recently voted us “Your Favourite Volunteers.” When Medipac invited Bob and myself on stage, all we expected was a thank you, some hand-shakes and some hugs; but there was much more ­ a beautiful piece of Canadian memorabilia with special engraving […]
