        I'm not sure you can buy a sense of humour on ebay, there's plenty of joke books you've successfully managed to avoid on there though.

        Perhaps his name isn't Benny so he doesn't know who your talking to.

        Hope that you have not got a helicopter getting those live pictures too! Imagine the disturbance! It will stop feeding. Leave it to the experts to watch it.

        Oh FFS! Don't give it a name! The animal is lost probably in distress and more likely will die.
