The answers for anyone who's interested are as follows:

 1. Magpie
 2. Grey partridge
 3. Mustelid
 4. The process by which holes were drilled in prehistoric men's heads when they had a headache. Medicine men did this because they thought headaches were caused by evil spirits entering the body & they had to let them out. They kept the little bones & put them in little bags that the patient had to carry around their necks to ward off other evil spirits.
 5. Charlotte Bronte
 6. Emily Bronte
 7. Anne Bronte
 8.Horses
 9. The rime of the ancient mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
 10. Grasmere in the Lake District.

 If anyone would like to get their own back on me, please feel free to write another 1. It's just for fun.
1. Pica pica is another name for which common bird?
 2. Perdix perdix is another name for which common bird?
 3. Which animal group do otters, badgers, ferrets & Northern European polecats come under? I'll give you a clue. They're not rodents.
 4. What is/was trephining?
 5. Who wrote under the pseudonym of Currer Bell?
 6. Who wrote under the pseudonym of Ellis Bell?
 7. Who wrote under the pseudonym of Acton Bell?
 8. What was George Stubbs most famous for painting?
 9. The following extract is from which famous poem, "Water, water, everywhere & all the boards did shrink. Water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink"?
 10. Where was William Wordsworth when he wrote his most famous poem, "daffodils"?
