Take this fun quiz!

It has been so boring around here lately that I haven't had any good stuff to relay to you. So how about filler?

          But don't go away; this should be fun.
          In one of my first blogs, I used a cliché. Like "for the birds" I believe it was. It was bad and I apologized for it.
          But I could really litter up this blog with bird-related clichés, because there are soooo many.
          So I've decided to go ahead and get them out of the way, right here and now. And rather than just list them, how about a little quiz?
          The answers can be phrases, sayings or terminology that you might not even consider cliché. But they are all related to birds.
          Those of you who do crosswords should love this.
          Score 100% and you get the Wise Old Owl award.              
           The answers are at the bottom.
