   Old eagle eye?
   Not getting the connection either … unless it’s because stealing eggs from an eagle might be more dangerous?

   OK…..
   I THINK…..

   
   Eggs Benedict is expensive because it’s made with “poached” eggs.

   
   And egg poaching can be hazardous to the chef’s health and even his bank account.

   huzzah!
   But I still “play laid” for my Benedict Arnold reference apropos of the thieving plot he hatched to betray his officer fledglings. Caught changing nests, his career was scrambled and he ended up with egg on his face.

    I was just re-reading an old "Smithsonian Magazine from the early 1990s. Egg poaching by and for egg collectors was a major problem in the English countryside back then. Ground-nesting bird populations were being badly affected. Is that still a problem over there, anyone?

    Benedict Arnold was a traitor, the American Eagle is a symbol of our nation, poaching is stealing and the act is of a traitor and a thief.
