Well, on the subject of puzzle questions and other not-quite-cobirds topics, I was part of an educational webinar on heavy equipment and machinery for interpreters, and there was a picture of a big truck with a crane, and a picture of a great blue heron. As in English, the words in Spanish for a metal crane and the bird are the same, but I had to let the webinar teacher know that he wasn’t showing a picture of a crane, not Antigone canadensis. He said he searched for images of cranes, and that was what he found 🙄
