Well done. Thanks for visiting my blog on U. I posted a reply on my own blog comments, but it came up as from Barry, because I was using his laptop. So if you go back and read, look for Barry, not chrisj
Yes - what is that poor thing and why is it pinned there? :(
Gamekeepers used to hang 'vermin' up around their territory to 'warn off' the rest. They would kill rats, jays, foxes, birds of prey, etc to protect the pheasant (or other game bird) eggs they were rearing, and nail the bodies to a post or a tree. Nowadays some still do it, but don't advertise their illegal activites.
Anyway - great 'U' post, whatever the creature in the first pic is/was.

Undeniably kewl!
The unavoidable is a bit close to home! Only two weeks ago I hit a car myself... Mind you, I could have avoided it if I had only paid attention!
Great choices - I like them all. A
Yes some things are unavoidable. Poor car and poor rodent.
Good choice for U.
Unfortunate, tho unintentional.
On behalf of the ABC Wednesday team, thank you! - ROG
Unfortunate - a terrific U choice. Excellent photos, as well and the header is a glorious banner of color!
Only unattractive to the unattentive. Great photo's!
Gosh, this is hysterical! Love the whimsy here! You brought a big smile to my face.
Glad we don't have any of those unattractive critters where I live. Yikes!

Now I'm intrigued: What is that 'unattractive' creature and why has it been pinned to a tree with what looks like a scroll of white fabric??! :D
