     Out on the great American desert one day, a male bald eagle  reached  a
state  of great libidal distress.  Pickings were slim, but in time, he saw a
dove flying by.  "Better than nothin'"  he  muttered  (birds  in  jokes  can
mutter)  and  swooped down, grabbed the dove and flew to his nest.  Feathers
flew, and eventually the dove tottered to the edge  of  the  cliff,  shouted
(yes, they shout, too):

                                         I'm a dove
                                      I've been loved
                                       And I LIKE it!


     Well, sir, this took care of the old boy for a while but soon enough he
was at it again.  All he could see was a lark, so away he went, and feathers
flew and soon the lark shouted:

                                         I'm a lark
                                     I've been sparked
                                       And I LIKE it!

and flew away.

     As you can guess, some time later our  friend  was  again  in  need  of
amor...  lib...   you know!  This time, all that happened by was...  a DUCK!
So down he swooped, and feathers flew, and the duck tottered to  the  cliff-
side and shouted:























                                        I'M A DRAKE!
                                   THERE'S BEEN A MISTAKE
                                    AND I DON'T LIKE IT!
