It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut.

Yeah....neither have I.

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Am I right?

King Arthur: I'm not interested!

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Oh yeah, an African swallow, maybe, but not a European swallow. That's my point.

Second Swallow-Savvy Guard: But then the African swallow's not migratory...
