<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 110088, member: 44"]I agree, probably some type of arms. Those weird birds are emerging from a *crown* on top of a knight's *helmet* or a man's head. As weird as the whole scene is, I wonder if that shield is the man's chest. Why... well the bottom right corner of the shield looks like upper part of an arm; however, with that maltese type cross makes it more likely a shield being held at an angle.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now for those birds, I'm not sure if they are peacocks, ostriches, geese, cranes... I suspect they are probably peacocks but their relative length and rubbery curving and turning looks more like ostrich maneuvers.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
