Only if you feel very, very sorry for it and have an overwhelming urge to care for the poor thing.

Hi Rosie,

I have looked at the bird, and I do not think this is Marcolin.

Hi Ingela....I hoped you would look!!  I know it isn't Marcolin, this was more a tongue in cheek question.  I told the seller, but they haven't changed it, and there is another one correctly listed as just a glass bird so you would think this seller would have realised.  :usd: :thud:
No overwhelming urge Sue.....not for this one anyway!!
