I've found a few birds and rescued them. ... But you already know that. :biggrin:

Tights of Cydonia
I found some nifty wire cutters in the road, a tired & empty old pannier thrown in the hedge, and some lazy sod's punctured inner tube hung on farm gate. Perhaps said lazy sod planned to return later with the car to tidy it up ?
 
This year - Tractor drawbar pin complete with clip, up to date map of the UK showing bridge heights, new tarpaulin section for the side of a marquee, Toyota ignition key, nice new quilted council hi viz 3/4 coat, complete spare tube and tyre lever kit nicely packaged (wrong size for me unfortunately - but a nice surprise for a friend), Pair of lovely rollcut secateurs (just on que to replace my old ones), Even a MTB tyre from a dumped bike. Quite a reasonable haul I thought.
 
Hardly ever find anything. There was a Thermos flask the other day. It kind of fit into my back pocket but I felt like Quasimodo so left it for the pannier carriers!

Changed hemispheres!
a latex vigina with lubrication & some birching rods
a bright pink vibrator (on the A49 last summer)
2 anniversary copies of Private magazine. (the 18th anniversary and 21st anniversary editions before anyone asks and I can confirm that hard core porn magazine were exceptionally bad in the '80's)

I used to cycle 7 miles each way to a gardening job for 15 pence an hour. One day I spotted a cow's head in the ditch with a hole in the mddle of its temple. I used to stop most days and stare at it after that.

One day I got the idea that I'd like to lay a trail all the way to work so I filled my Dad's garden spray with water, strapped it on the luggage rack and dribbled water on the road for seven miles. I have no idea what possessed me to do that.

Possibly the medication they put you on after they found you sat in a ditch staring at a rotting cows head, lol!

A dead grass snake.

Same here, only she was dying when we got to her. She'd been pregnant at the time, which we knew because her eggs (pretty well-on by the look of them, probably why she couldn't get out of the way of the car in time) were next to her. Not nice when you can;t do anything to save an animal from suffering :sad:

My brother found while out cycling a box of puppies, each of them had their feet bound together. Some people eh, its disgusting what some people do. One phone call home and they were safe in our house....pity we couldn't have kept them, RSPCA took them. Hope they went to good homes and had a happy ending

My blood's boiling just reading this. Fitting punishment for anyone found to have done this would be to treat them the same way, only dump them beside a remote road in, say, backwoods Russia with one car-per-week traffic, batsrads!
