What does eagle eye really mean?

..................................................................

Eagle eye means that if you had the vision of an eagle, you could read a newspaper from across a football field.

"Not bad, eh?" Says a jokingly bespectacled eagle...
"Where's my tea? I always like to have a delightful, fragrant cuppa while I peruse the paper... "

"Margaret! Where's my tea!"

The pups woo-wrule: How do dogs top all other mammals?

................................................................

Pups, dogs - sooo cute, so many kinds!

Yes, thanks to a human love for expression, variety, curiosity, and experimentation: there are more breeds/types of dogs (400 +) than any other mammal.

All dogs came from the woof! I mean, the wolf...

Apparently, some wolves were more gentle, and easier to tame.

Dogs can be genetically traced back to The East/The Orient.

And dogs have not only given us great companionship; they have also helped us survive, by protecting us, our property, the fruits of farming...
