More birds 🙂
Thanks. They will help me in the next ones.
I am glad you like the birds!
Thank you,
Elephant
…and there I was thinking the storks carried the babies in bundles.
Thank you I had the same misconception!
Ha Ha He He!

A litle eerie, isn´t it?
Well, so is the story that storks bring babies! Pretty much every fairy tale story is eerie! Why? I don’t know, but confusion about what and where is a cornerstone of fairy tales!
Elephant
It is true. We have been so used to the “Disney” all nice-and-cozy versions of fairy tales that we forget they were actually full of grim aspects, evil people, gruesome details. Good point you made.
I would say all this about the Disney machine!

And I though you find them in your garden under gabages.
Is this a Freudian Typo regarding the origin of babies? I love this pearl!
Elephant
The babies seem displeased about their transportation. Must be uncomfortable!
Who wants to ride around on a bird for a long fight? Maybe the flight from that side to this!

I was also thinking that feathers on bare behinds might be a little irritating 😦
Let’s just keep quiet about our worries about how babies get here! I think we are in the minority.

Look mom! No hands! (EEEK!)
