Deep in the countryside of Albion members of the Royal Society of London have gathered for a rather special sight-
They have come to see the last pair of Dodos in Albion. Such a rarity demands attention.
The ancestors of these birds were brought by explorers and kept in secrecy in this estate. Often visited by natural philosophers and the alike they have become something of a legend in these parts. Others have sought them for gain to sell to the highest bidders, the Dutch ambassador has shown an exquisite interest and wished to present them to the Stadtholder for display in his gardens. The Society and her members guard the exact whereabouts of the dodos as one of their most precious secrets.
A zoological marvel. Nice little vignette. Can we look forward to some pineapples soon?
