Or is the bird throwing up?

That piece of cloth has a mind of its own — and it just poked that poor bird in the face.

(True story: I once watched a mynah bird fighting a plastic bag. It looked a bit like this.)

And wait, this is a murder mystery?!! The other books in the series also use the same crow motif, and they’re all fine, but something seems to have gone badly wrong here. Can I get me a false flagging tag? (‘Flagging’, geddit!?)

Maybe that is a fountain of blood from the eye, the result of being hit with a BB gun. And in the distance, translucent ghost crows heckle, “We told you so!”

Maybe the bird is doing 30mph with a 45mph tailwind.

Physics is different in LBCland.
