When you have feathers but you belong to a flock of beings that don’t have any feathers, you have to adapt.
For instance, as a feathery being, you prefer to eat your meals in daylight.
However, many featherless beings seem to like to save the last meal of the day for after the sun goes down.
This, of course, just makes the prey that much harder to stalk….which means you have to up your game to get your fair share.
It is totally dark out so it is hard to tell, but I think I have just come across some large, juicy prey.It seems big enough to share, Mom, but you’d better let me bring it down with my advanced stalking skills.First I will circle the prey, making as much noise and mess as possible to immobilize it with fear.Now I’ll take a tiny nibble – just to make sure it is worth the effort.Wow – it didn’t even twitch. I think it’s already immobilized!Did you see me, Grandma? Did you? I brought down that large, juicy prey all by myself!

And we love it. And you tell us you love it. Yay!
But if you would like to “pass the waffles” (or the mealworms, or the salmon) and gift your favorite flock member with a tasty treat, our beaks are wide open and grateful! 🙂
I think Pearl did a good job! Grandma was listening very intently to his exploits.
Awww – thanks, Jeanne! Pearl’s Grandma was very proud of him (she made the dish just for him, of course!) 🙂
