A Rare Treat

JP: Spurgeon, the Philippine quail that cook prepared last night was delicious. Do you know whether she has any more?

Spurgeon: Unfortunately, she does not, sir. It is apparently no longer available.

JP: Mm. Pity. Well, then, ask her to prepare the ivory-billed woodpecker, will you?

Spurgeon: Very good, sir.
