Yes @delishtreats ...

"Oh yes, I read that they were not that clever :)"

... that was my concern! As you may recall, we discussed ancestry awhile back and I have a considerable amount of German "blood," so hoping they were a little brighter than that ... 😉

As a Christian, it is interesting to me that any group of people professing to be the same would take 600 years to build a place to get together. I am sure the devout members of that little town did something else in the meantime, but it just struck me a little funny ... Well, as you know, though, my sense of humor might be considered ... uhhh ... an "acquired taste" ... 😉

On a serious note, I truly enjoyed the post. You do nice work. And as for the little bird, well we can both appreciate how much effort this town put in to celebrating "the legend" or whatever it is, since there is some very impressive art involved in their various ... uhhh ... "interpretations" of it.

Thank you for "bringing it to life" for us!
