The Man Who Collects Birdwatcher's Eggs
The setup
The premise
Here’s the bit.
A peaceful countryside scene hides a strange hobby: Herbert Mental sneaks up on a birdwatcher and takes the boiled eggs from his lunch. Back at home, he displays his collection and conducts his own interview about the television appearances he hopes it will earn him. His interests become increasingly alarming as he reveals mounted butterfly hunters and sends pigeon fanciers racing across the countryside like a flock of birds.
