Voila! The detectives looked at the eggs. Overdone, it seemed, but by whom!? The list of suspects was long and hard, like a very normal plank of wood, probably a two by four.

The pigeon! There was a pigeon roosting in the windowsill. It had a devious look in its one good eye. The other eye wandered. An empty nest. This was no breakfast murder, this was a cold blooded killing by a cold blooded bird. Redundancy aside, birds of a feather sometimes murder together. The raven's murder, that is.
