I can understand the Poms falling for that. I just had no thoughts of
April !st in mind this morning and got caught seriously.

The late and respected James Fisher once used a respected BBC radio
nature programme to report a new British passerine. It had no
distinguishing features and was named the Hoodwink (Dissimulatrix
spuria). In the next few days dozens of people reported sightings.... Up
there with the Spaghetti Harvest I reckon.
Hoodwink isn't a bad name for those never-identified little brown birds
you never really got a look at.
