Why stop at birds? The Victorian William Buckland [0] had a personal mission to eat one of every kind of animal in existence. He was also appointed Dean of Westminster and, like Charles Darwin, belonged to the Glutton Club. Mice on toast were a particular favourite, apparently.

I was into it until he ate a mummified human heart.
I admire the dedication! Though question the immediate destruction of a unique artifact.
Mice are the sardines of the mammal world.
I'm going to have to remember that one.
I think Roald Dahl had one story about a man who went to great lengths to eat a ghost.
You mean that Aardman film with Darwin the badguy who wants to eats the dodos is based on real life?
Just riffing on the Roman thing: Mice - glires.
Remarkable Italian invention ...
Nothing is new
Thanks for sharing, thoroughly enjoyed that read
