I’ve just noticed the Wiltshire Flag. Why does it have that rather stupid-looking duck on it?

All right, I know it’s a bustard, but has anyone ever seen a bustard? Are they ever likely to? Would anyone except an ornithologist know what it was?

The stylish and beautiful White Horses of Wiltshire are globally known, and are seen by all of us on our daily business.

Surely we should have one of these as a centrepiece, creating a flag we can be proud of instead of embarrassed by.
