SWMBO bought me a drawing for my last birthday: It's quite a spectacular drawing of a wedge-tailed eagle in coloured pencil and was produced by a local artist. Reputedly there are 175 colours in it, but I haven't counted.
Anyhow, after a few weeks we stuck it up over the doorway into our improvised office. That makes it sound a little more grand than it really is as houses from WW1 in Millmerran certainly didn't have an office. Wealthy land owners might have had an escritoire but not an office. It is just part of the enclosed verandah.
So here it is flying over the doorway. It seemed appropriate for such a majestic creature:

Quite a handsome bird really and the the picture is rather like an illustration from a bird encyclopedia:

I got to thinking how I could enhance this and this is what I came up with:

and the caption is........ (please scroll down) wait for it......
"Sawing with Eagles."
:D:D:D

Ps. I took the opportunity to do this while SWMBO was in Toowoomba. The status quo has been restored and no one will ever know except you and me. I did broach the subject as a joke a while back and the reception I received has led me to believe it would not be looked upon favourably. I took them back down because I didn't want it to become a saw point.
