Well I can't keep you in suspense much more so indulge in a bit of fun and solve these extremely tricky clues! All complaints that the answers don't make sense will of course be ignored.

1 Ow the bug got me

2 shoot from a concealed place

3 Zombie J mod

4 What burglars say when asked what they are doing.

5 in the night sky but with a lucky gypsy product to finish its name

6 can write with this bird as well as get corn off it

7 J mod inclined to world domination

8 What a small person has when feeling a bit dizzy

9 a spitting bird of prey

10 eggs cooked in water a little too long

11 you might feel this in the morning after a good night out

12 JAWS with of feeling remorse

13 milk snatcher in a pastry dish

14 quarry product has no time for small talk

15 take over from somebody for a short while

If people have answered no peeking or those answering edit em in on an previous page if you've posted and say where if you'd like.

No time limit, I've edited one slightly and might change another.

Some might require a bit of imagination, but I thought you'd get the majority fairly easily.

Got most of em, good job. I was a bit worried about a few being badly worded. The hawk one might not make sense depending on where you live.

Obviously the ones I didn't get were terribly worded :P

Edit
And I suggest you re-write those questions so they fit the answers I gave ;)

I wasn't sure if they were all supposed to be British birds but I answered on that basis anyway.

Edit to my edited edit
Thanks for taking the time to think up the questions - it was fun.
