Only ever one winner

I voted for it, but had Pied Wagtail been amongst the options, I wouldn't have. Sadly, the latter's charms are much subtler

The blackbird had been in the runner-up position - until children's votes were counted

Most (if not all) of the ladies I've ever met don't like weight to be put on top of them.
