ALONG THE BACK FENCE

Last night, the "Love Doves", cuddled while watching the sunset. I swear their little wings were around each other.

Tonight, the beautiful female cocked her head from side to side as she listened for the return of her mate.

Then whoosh, like an evil villain, a curved bill thrasher swooped down.
Bumped "Lovely Dovey' from the fence.
His wicked red eye glowed, as he did a"slink walk".
Daring anyone to land near him.
