Challenge
Waterfowl
Write me a story that has waterfowl in it. They don't have to play a big role. They can simply be flying in the background. But, Include them.
The swan
She glides down the river like a figure skater.
Her elegant white feathers glisten in the sun.
Her long neck enables her to feed from the buffet under the water.
Webbed feet pita pata on the muddy banks creating a pattern of footprints.
A nest is made nearby from floating sticks, that interlock.
Nurture takes over as she searches
for a mate.
One mate for life.
Together they glide down the river,
trailing behind are fluffy ball signets.
Her as family.
