A few years ago, I spent a morning on a guided tour of the nearby Wixall Moss, trying to catch sight of the elusive Falco Subbuteo or Hobby Hawk. Yes, that's really how the inventor of the table soccer game arrived at a name for it (game, hobby, subbuteo).

We never did catch sight of the wretched bird, and in due course repaired to the nearest pub!

Sorry for the thread drift!
