Okay, If you don't care for little birds, how about a little frog?

The photo is approximately life size.

I like frogs and birdies!

I think that one might be a toad - it's toad-shaped, and if it's away from water that'd make sense becasuse they are a) not that fussed about water, and b) migratory

we used to find newts under stones in our garden, and every time we'd take them inside and look them up in The Book. Every time. We knew they were newts. But just in case.

great crested newts look like little dinosaurs. i am convinced by this. and they have bright orange bellys! they are great

our next door neighbours have this giantly humungous pond/lake in their back garden that they filled up from our hose because they are on a water meter and we are on a static charge!

if it's got newts in they're endangered! they should march to Downing Street and get free water for them!

i'm not sure if they have the newts, i think their geese eat them. we have them tho!

but if you report they slap a conservation order on your pond and you're not allowed near it! so we haven't.. there have been 3 of us fishing in there as children for many many years and it doesn't seem to have done them any harm!

we have one of them on our pond, but it was under the last owner, so no one's told us not to do anything! Also, it's in the front, right by the road, so they're already about as disturbed as they'll get

we decided not to report ours after the school in our village reported theirs - they have a lovely nature pond that they use to teach the kids about life-cycles etc - it was great when i was there. now no-one's allowed near it...

You are an Accomptant. You keep track of the King's accounts, which is a fairly simplish job: his current holdings is always A LOT, and his expected revenue is always MORE. 'Sgood ta be da King. As long as there isn't a peasant uprising, you're likely to keep your head. Also, you're the only one in the office who knows how to use an abbacus. (Or multiply.) (Or add.)

I prefer to live in a country that's small, and old, and where no one would ever have the NERVE to wear a cape in public, whether they could leap tall buildings in a single bound or not.
