One of the Queen's swans has been found killed and barbecued on the riverbank near to Windsor Castle.
The cooked swan's carcass was dumped near Baths Water, and was discovered by Wendy Hermon, 46, a volunteer for charity Swan Lifeline, which cares for sick and injured birds.
She described the scene as 'sickening', and admitted she would have been distraught if her young son was with her when she made the grisly discovery after being called out by a council warden last Sunday.

A barbeque is grisly? Maybe they gutted it right by the fire.

From the comments, it appears to be an illegal immigration problem.

It looked burned up, feathers and all, rather than barbecued.

Taste is mid-way between Bald Eagle and Spotted Owl, close, but not quite like California Condor...

How does it compare to the White-throated Needletail, Asian Crested Ibis, the Eskimo Curlew or Bachman’s Warbler?

Thank goodness, they were talking about a bird, considering the nicknames the Brits have for things......
