 * Symbol question.svg Newly-created article with 1604 characters of readable prose. A cursory check shows that text in the article with Lambert 1997 as a reference seems to be highly similar to that within the book itself, but should probably be acceptable per WP:LIMITED. Two parts, "does not have a shell", and "or in knots and filled with eggs", don't appear to be mentioned by the given source – could you explain how it is, as I don't see how that's the case? Otherwise, this nomination should be good to go; source (3) should be acceptable given its author (Mark Carwardine), the hook is correctly cited and appropriate, all sources are freely accessible.
