      Feeding on insects, lizards and smaller birds, they are stocky little characters. Is that what you mean Ferdy? Posted one year ago

        Yes, stocky in a way that the top half of the body seems heavier compared to the bottom half. I guess this is a Dutch expression that didn't translate well, hehe. Posted one year ago
