My Story:
Hello Dear,
Another long day at the office,
Well Honey, I'm glad that You flew in safe and sound!
I have an awesome idea, why don't we both get cleaned up, then we can eat and relax!
Great idea!
And so...
The Geese preened themselves before the Evening meal, so they could both relax and watch the Sun go down.
That's what I'm talking about! Glad he made it safely home from work!

Thank You So Very Much!
It was what came into My head
after looking at the photos
for a few moments. Sort of like,
if I was flying in it would be from
where and why...
You have an Awesome Eve.!

Marty and Myrtle were well fed geese. Everyday the same plane would fly over and drop loads of seeds right below their favorite chimney.
It had been going on so long that they had become quite accostomed to it, and wasteful in their want.
Marty would stand on guard a few minutes before the plane's normal passing time and squawk like ribbons when he heard the motor coming. Mrtyle would then stop whatever she was doing and fly up to join Marty in his squawking.
It was as if they thought that by squawking, the plane would be forced to drop seed. Then came the fateful day when the plane flew over and didn't drop its payload of featherly food.
The geese stared down at the ground hoping it might somehow produce the seeds. Memories of all the tossed and trampled seeds from days gone by filled their thoughts as they stared at the dirt willingly....
They were indeed well fed (although in actuality it is Lady Marian who feeds them well, I think!) Great story!

Ah this reminds me of that incredibly well known saying from days of yore...
"Never look a gift
horseplane in the mouth"Although it is just possible I am remembering that ever so slightly wrong... Then again, in these crazy days who has any clue what is right and wrong anymore???
Cool story, last weeks was awesome too! Sadly I didn't have the time to stop-by and tell you so due to a strange week with family stuff!
Take good care and stay awesome my friend :)
This day has been full of thank yous and here's another one for you. I get the family stuff. Losing our Conure threw me for over a week. I managed to post here and there but my heart wasn't in it. It was my least productive week since I started writing here on HIVE. Gotta take the good times and the bad, I suppose.
And from what I remember, you have it correct word for word. "Never look a gift horse in the mouth". I think it was also the name of a Pink Panther movie! 🙂👍

tokens.Always Look Your Best
A very short story.
Cleo is sitting atop the roof all by herself when suddenly Marco swoops in, all excited and almost out of breath screeching: There's a drone up there! There's a drone up there!
Cleo: Where? I don't see anything.
Marco: Over there just right above us. Can you see it?
Cleo: Yes, I see it. Hurry! Let's clean ourselves fast before it takes a picture of us. You don't want to look bad in photos, do you? Well neither do I.
And so they start grooming themselves for the photo shoot.
The End
Great reason to be excited! I love it!

tokens.Yes indeed... It does look just like this is what is happening :D
Nobody likes to be photographed when they are not looking their best, right? It doesn't matter if is in a photo booth, by the paparazzi or by a drone, although I must say, these 2 look perfect to me just how they are :D
Wild Egyptian geese stood in the chimney feeling proud to have achieved that height. I can watch the world from here it said.
Minute later
What! How did this bird do it? Watching in surprise.
Geese 1:"Can we try that"?
Geese 2: "you do just break your bones if you fall from this height"
They both looking at the height
Haha! They are up high, that's for sure! Thanks,

tokens.It is never a good idea to forget just how far from the ground we are!
I guess in an a plane it is kinda OK to forget lol. If I was on that rooftop I would NOT forget :D
Ok here goed :

tokens.Cool story. Worthy of praise and maybe a touch of worship too. Bowing at the right moment is obligatory of course :D
Hahahaha geese always now a bit when they make noise so that’s why I wanted that in my short story. The comment stories are fun
Hi There!
This looks like the "Classic" homecoming story, to Me.
Maybe a son or daughter coming home to visit their Mom. (Though probably a mate...)
They greet, and then it is to the usual - preening!
Wish You an Awesome Week!
👍🏼😁👍🏼
That is probably what is actually happening! Can you make up something about where they have been or what they might be saying? A bit of fluffy fiction? 😉
I think so!
Let Me give it some thought...
And should I post back to the same
Post?
Thanks!
👍🏼😁👍🏼
Oh good! 😁 Yes, post your story here!
Will do!
Thank You So Much!
👍🏼😁👍🏼
Yup! Always with the preening! Although I should talk it takes me ten minutes to put on my hair-gel in the mornings before work. Thankfully hairdressers and barbers are gradually coming out of lockdown! :D
Ha ha ha!
I have the whole show down to about 50 mins!
That's shower, shave, hair (and I have elbow.length), dressed and all!
"Practice"!!!
He he he!
Have a Great Mid-Week!
👍🏼🌅👍🏼
Thank you Lady @melinda010100 and I should have sent you the original photos!
Btw. I found a great treasure today. A perfect Nautilus shell.
I didn't know what the beautiful shell was, so in my post I called for an ID.
Thankfully my Russian friend @qwerrie had the answer.
Then I took a look at Nationalgeographic and you will be amazed when you look at the link that I edited into the post.
My first and I am over the moon.
Ps. Oh, yes, there is also a bird story in the post for you!
These photos look OK, and if people want to see the real high-quality super duper photos they need to head over to your profile and look at the originals!
Thanks so much for letting us use them!
@qwerrie is a brilliant guy! I'll be over soon to look at your posts! I'm a bit behind, again! 😜
I was a bit mixed up today where to place a post, but there are a few great bird shots as well, so I placed the post in #featheredfriends.
If you see a new "Disclaimer" at the end of my posts, it is not aimed at you.
Apparently there are people on Twitter that copies posts and then use them for nefarious purposes.
Thank you once again for using my post Lady Melinda.
Blessings and take care!
Oh I did not know that. I have just become active on Twitter and was thinking of promoting peoples posts once I have gotten my head around the way everything works, Thanks for the heads-up. I shall look in to this first!
Amazing shots of a couple of beauties frolicking and doing their thing. Great job catching this :D
Thank you @stevenwood and I am glad that you liked the photos!
Blessings!
I will do just that! I agree these shots are fabulous. It feels a little like we are peeking in on these 2 beauties when they have no idea we are watching their antics :D
Yay!

Hello dear @merlinda010100, good photos that challenge us to use our imagination. I don't know if it's close to what is possibly happening there, I'm just wondering if maybe those geese lost someone that day, because they look up at the sky and then they are down. I hope you are wrong with this interpretation that I am making. I hope everything is fine between them...
I think everything was fine, but this could have been what was actually happening. I'm hoping for fiction stories about what they might be saying to each other, or maybe where they have been and why they are meeting on the rooftop.
Points Boosting refund to @melinda010100!
