First, I want to invite @pandamama to participate in here. I think she can add a nice story to the list of great ones you have already had.Dear @soft-su,
And here is my story:
Look better close around
Basil had been looking for a mate for a long time - no one should be alone in this world, neither people nor birds. All his friends were already building own nests with their wives, and only he was still looking for his ideal one...
She had to be special, not like others. Of course, her beauty had to be on the first place - who could doubt, but there was one more point, very important for Basil - she had to be calm and silent. He appreciated the calmness and silence so much! Unfortunately, it turned out that there were a lot of beauties in his flock, but they all were too loud, too noisy and chirped incessantly from morning to evening. It was just unbearable!
Basil flew around the whole area to no avail and was already completely resigned to the fate of a loner, when suddenly he saw HER! She was sitting modestly on the fence without making a sound! Hurray, here, here SHE is, and none of the competitors around! Now all that remains was just to charm her, which would not be difficult for such a handsome and clever man as Basil.
He did all the efforts and techniques of the seducer, but what would have easily conquered any of his pack did not affect the mysterious stranger in any way. No matter how hard he tried, she remained cold and did not respond to his advances.
Well, after wasting lot of time Basil said, - “With such a cold iron heart, you will certainly stay alone forever. But I will fly away to seek my happiness among ordinary friends with their shortcomings. In the end - which of us is without flaws ?! Goodbye. I wish you happiness." With these words, Basil turned away from the touch-me-not, flapped his wings and flew towards his flock.
Thanks for inviting your friend, we'd love to hear her stories for sure.
Poor Basil trying to woo his quiet mate.
Great he has learned his lesson, hope he finds a suitable mate.
Best wishes for the contest. Thanks for joining in @olgavita
Thank you @soft-su!
You are so welcome. Do encourage your friend to join in
I could not expect from myself that I was able to write stories, ha-ha! I am sure I did it just because the picture by @melinda010100 is just excellent!
Glad you were inspired by that image.
It's a great photo for sure.
You are a good storyteller @olgavita - thanks for the invite
