I would suggest a slight rewording for the hook to avoid having Sparrows egg twice: alt1 "... that Cypripedium passerinum (pictured) is a lady's slipper orchid that resembles a sparrow's egg?"
 * But that would defeat the purpose of the hook's wordplay. Let's go with the original hook :-)  Rcej (Robert) –  talk  04:25, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
