Sacred

A Sacred Kingfisher, no less. I haven't met one this close up before. And it was a very unceremonious meeting.

I'd been wondering what the smell in the garage was. Hoped that one of the humans in the household hadn't had an unrecorded 'accident'. Then someone pointed out to me the very sorry looking mascot protruding from the front grill  of my car. I had a recollection of seeing a bird disappear in front of me a few days earlier, but none of any bump. 

He got a respectful burial in the rubbish bin, along with all the wriggling maggots bursting out of his belly.
