Also please note that if you have an image posted in the Feathered Friends community, and feel it would be a good fit for this contest, you should let me know so I can use it next time :)

@julianhorack - you've gotten into writing stories. This is a super fun prompt! Bring it! (?)

@meesterboom - No beavers to write about but almost everyone likes a good duck? (Creative license because my goose'll be cooked if I said almost everybody likes a good goose. And geese aren't good anyway as far as I've heard. They're pretty hard-core.)

Some good pics to generate some fine feathered tales this round... 👏🏻

Hehe, ducks win against geese at least!! :0)

If you're lucky! 😏😅

Hey... I remember @brianoflondon reckons most folks like a good duck as well. I think he said that on a comment on one of @dannewton 's duck pics.

Or maybe somewhere else...

And I turned it onto a meme in the comments for him when I found Dan's duck pics. But I don't think Brian ever found my should've been viral meme (and what exactly is a meme anyway, while we're at it?), because I tagged him in a quote. Those tags don't work, y'know. And I was still a Bot. and so I shall remain

Point is... Brian also reckons almost everyone likes a good duck and I'd have to agree with Brian. On many things after reading his stuff on the Meta & Google case, now. 👏🏻👍🏻

And... it seems... ducks bring people together as well. I guess because most of us like them. 😏

Although these are geese in the picture so...

And no beavers in sight. You got that whisky ready, Mr M?

Hello @wrestlingdesires.
Hello friends of birds and of this beautiful initiative, which invites us to create stories inspired by images of our beloved winged ones.

I'm going to tell you a story with the first thing that came to my mind when I saw both photos.

Party on the lake

What better place is there to have a party than one where food abounds? If we share with our family and friends, be it talking, dancing or playing, it is better to do it by eating too or with a full belly.
If we drink liquor but don't eat we get drunk, if we dance while hungry we can faint.
In the case of the gray geese, it seems that they had everything to make the party a success.
They had a lot of food, ideal temperature, full attendance.
Ah, but a group breaker could not be missing.
One of the youngest guests had the audacity to notice a goose that already had a partner, so the dance and the feast turned into a hubbub.
Pecks here, pecks there, plucked here and others there, the squawking broke the peace in the lake, because they could be heard in the distance and even the fish fled.
Fortunately, Pepe reconsidered, he decided to go elsewhere and look for a partner where there were only single females. Everything returned to normal, he received the lesson of life from him and he did not pay attention to other people's women again.
Meanwhile, at another lake, another party was taking place.
Taking advantage of the arrival of spring and the abundance of food, the family of Red-billed Coots planned a meeting with a "crazy hour" moment.
Everything went perfectly, they swam, flapped and ate in harmony. When the scheduled time arrived, they began to move erratically while making sounds that resembled laughter.
It was crazy for those who saw it from the outside since it seemed to make no sense, but they knew that it did and that in this way they displayed their desire for freedom, to lose their inhibitions, to be children again, to find joy and be grateful for the fact to be alive.

And colorín colorado, this story is over, whoever stays seated stays stuck.
Thank you very much for reading ❤️.
I invite @justina7osun and @gornat to participate in this fun challenge.

What a beautiful story ♥️ May we all experience such enjoyable celebrations 🙌🙏🎆

TITLE: Spring has arrived

Spring is here. The geese decided to take their first dip. Between flapping and flapping the water splashed hard. The boldest one decided to fly away to another place. The others are still thinking... whether it would be better for them to take off and accompany him on an exploratory flight. Meanwhile, they enjoy their stay in the warm waters of the lake, where their family has always enjoyed. They are not interested in the future, they only enjoy their present in the water that feels warmer and warmer. ....

It sounds like a perfect day for a swim 🙌

Exactly ! 🍔🤣

they make you bloated and heavy on takeoff! Too late for today, try again tomorrow!

I'm now curious if those high calorie little balls are like junk food for birds🤔. Goose better stay away from them or he will end up being physically heavy to even attempt to takeoff😅

it is the risk that it is nailed to the ground 😱the small balls are so appetizing yes one can say that it is junk food for birds

Lol😅 I see.
