Immature Red Crossbill, Loxia curvirostra, 15.88 cm. / 6.25 in. Very interesting was that out of a flock of more than 75 birds, a few had their top mandible (bill) crossed over to the left, while the majority had a crossover to the right as this bird displays.

During World War Two, Bermuda proved to be a geographically convenient location for the scrutiny of mail exchanged between North America and Europe. All correspondence sent to or from Europe was examined by Imperial Censorship staff based at the Hamilton Princess Hotel on the island, and suspect items intercepted and photographed.
Ultimately some 1,500 British intelligence officers, academics and code-breakers and support staff were posted on Bermuda to operate the Imperial Censorship station shortly after the outbreak of the war. Many of the censors were attractive young women, largely university students, who became known as the “Censorettes”.
