    Owl pellets don’t come from that end, and so they aren’t generally associated with “bemuting”.

    “All the pigeons, to the number of thirtyfive, flew to and fro over the men’s heads and muted upon them from mid-air; and while the men were dealing with this,the geese, who had been hiding behind the hedge, rushed out and pecked viciously at their shins.”Animal Farm, George Orwell

    This is where I first encountered this word back in the 60s.

    … I well not increase my vocabulary you cannot make me…

    … I should soak them all in water to identify them…

    … where is Ace Ventura when you need him?…

    …the Cleveland Indians have won 22 games in a row…

    Just click on the little speaker icon with the red line through it. That will unmute the gathering.

    It’s better to burn out, than fade away!

    Def Leppard knows…

    As ABBA said, or might have said, Take a dump, take a dump, take a dump on me!

    I have been foully treated by passing non-strigine birds a time or two or more.

    But from the looks of the woodcut gathering, I’d say it’s just as well something ended it before it could effectuate murder most foul!
