Harris Hawk - Wimbledon 2013

This is a watercolour of Harris Hawk who does the same job as you may have seen or heard about Rufus doing. Basically he has keepers who during the Wimbledon Championships let him off to fly around which is meant to scare of the pigeons, and they both work! Britain's number one Laura Robson is due on court number two second or third today against New Zealand's Maria Erakovic in her 3rd round match. Elsewhere in the Wimbledon Championships we have Colin Fleming and Jonny Marray (not to be confused with Andy Murray!) seeded 9th in the Men's Doubles, currently playing and two sets to love up against F. Cermak and M. Mertinak (I haven't a clue about the first names!!). Andy Murray Britain's highest hope for the Wimbledon Championship seeded 2nd he is through to his 4th round match against either Viktor (?) Troicki or Mikhail (?) Youzhny. 

"Wacky Wednesday" completely improved Andy Murray's half of the draw with potential opponents of K.De Schepper or Fernando Verdasco in the quarter finals.
