Eating Crow

"Some years ago the Bureau of Biological Survey ran the Bird Banding Lab, a
version of which is still active today. Bands back then, similar to those
currently in use, were printed with a number plus an abbreviated address
indicating that the band was to be returned to the Washington Biological
Survey (Wash.Biol.Surv.). Upon finding one of the bands, an Arkansas farmer
returned the band to the bureau with the following letter:

'Dear Sirs: I shot one of your crows the other day. My wife followed the
cooking instructions on the leg tag and I want to tell you that bird tasted
just horrible."
