Our story begins of the coast of Casablanca on the small Portuguese island of Madeira. It has been known to be a relaxed tourist island until the finch families moved in. They have been unlike any other boss the island has seen.
They came onto the island really nice and friendly singing sweet songs to fit everyone's fancy. Overnight they started building up the place. One Finch in particular named Tony is very highly protective of his baby sister Gloria. He treats her as if she were his own daughter. When the sun comes up in the morning makes sure she has the sweetest things to eat. In the evening he won't let any of the other Finch guys near her. If one even beats an eye lash at her he goes all Peacock on them. This is his baby sister and he doesn't let anybody touch her.
All the finches knew to stay away from Gloria but she was such a special girl some guys just couldn't resist to give it a try. Among all the boys that tried to flirt with his sister, Tony couldn't stand Dennis. This Dennis was a smart bird. He would get up early in the morning when Tony was out of the nest and just sing casually along the trail. Gloria knew this song well. She knew that she shouldn't sing along because every time she did her brother tony recognized her voice and came swooping in to give a lump on Dennis' head.
One morning Dennis was there singing the most beautiful song and Tony was not back with breakfast even though hours past. The sun was already getting large and Gloria was feeling hungry. Dennis knew this was his opportunity. He flew up to the coconut tree and cracked open a coconut too eat. This was quite an impressive sight. Gloria was in awe at the way he took the coconut down. She was impressed at the power of this bird, but more than that she was hungry. She couldn't resist leaving her nest and coming down to the island flood to enjoy the coconut together. No one could blame a bird for being hungry.
Meanwhile her brother had fallen into trouble with the Pigeons at the Ribeiro Frio Park on the far side of the island. He found a tasty snack but the Trocaz Pigeon came and knocked it out of his mouth. There was no other choice for this Finch but to fins some other food. Tony knew better than to start a fight with that pigeon, but the delay cost him precious time to get back to his sister Gloria.
When he got back to her he saw her eating with that chump Dennis. There were no questions asked. Dennis and Tony were beak to beak and claw to claw. This was the most grueling fight the finches had ever seen. Tony didn't give Dennis a chance. He came soaring from up on high and smashed into him with his front claws. Dennis was chocking and could hardly breath. Gloria was shouting, "Stop!"
But Tony was not stopping. Dennis had a better idea and tumbled away off a cliff. Tony gave up chasing him, but Dennis was a lot smarter than he imagined. He decided if you can't beat them then join them. He started to help out around the whole Finch family. He didn't just sit around singing but he brought food when it was needed and shared with everyone. Gloria wondered why he stopped singing to her and stopped paying attention to her. She didn't know how much he really loved her nor how smart he was to wait. He seemed to have put off pursuing her and showed no interest in her, but he put his focus on helping everybody.
At the end of the season when it was time to fly off Tony took notice of how much Dennis help out the whole family. He was impressed. He was so impressed that he said, "Hey Dennis how 'bout you flying with my kid sister this time. Just don't do anything crazy."
I walk slowly and cautiously in Ribeiro Frio Park and keep my eyes on the trees. I can't help myself.

The busy wife.
Hey, why are you now coming home. You leave me alone to clean and cook and care for our kids. Why are you coming from. You always seem busy but I do all the work. You know it's dusty here but you wouldn't help me clean. Next time you take off, I will follow you. Come here let me lock my legs with yours so you can't leave without me.

You'd think dusting around the house would be be easy with their feathers. There's no excuse lol

Might be too heavy for him to even fly. Thanks for reading
My story for the second 🖼️
Title: Bath-time for Lady S
Lady Sally came in hot after a swift flight trying to escape from Mr. Predator. So when she saw the small water fountain, she went straight to land there for a refreshing bath.

Great story 🙌 Lady Sally is certainly skilled in flying :)

Wee story for the second photo, lol!
Title: Not Touching That!
Mrs. OCD was about to dip her toes on the water but had to check first if it was clean. Noticing the dirt, she withdrew her feet and exclaimed, "Oh no, oh no. I''m not gonna touch that! Yuck!"

How do we document this?
Where's your camera chirped Joanne?
Camera? What are you talking about Judy?
Look at this. If I jump high enough I can extend my legs completely horizontally. Don't forget to look at the interesting shadow I'm casting either.
I can do it too chrips Judy. Look at me and my shadow!
The only problem they haven't solved is the photo capture part. Luckily a kind stranger named @pardinus arrived on the scene to document this strange phenomenon. The birds never noticed and are still debating how to capture these type of moments.
Maybe a voice activated GoPro or BirdPro in this case?
🤣 and all they need to do is ask for a copy! Thanks so much for posting a story, and tagging a friend of 🙌

Thanks for the tag @ifarmgirl and this will be a wee story for the second picture. So it will be about Harry and Sally the two that were captured from @papilloncharity
Dirty and exhausted, I need a bath, and I need it NOW
Mr and Mrs Goose commonly known to the locals as Harry and Sally had been on a long scouting mission. They had been on a mission hoping rather forlornly to find any trace of their babies.
They were out of luck, and it seemed mother nature was being a cruel mistress yet again, and they had lost their babies to some unknown thing.
They were coming back home and wanted some food and a bite of grub.
Harry being the gentlegoose that he is let his wife go first.
"I hope you filled the bath to the right level and have it at the right temperature Harry!
You know how much my bath has to be just right!" squawked Sally to Harry.
"Of course I have it just the way you like it my dear Sally!" crooned Harry the goosepecked husband to his wife Sally.
Why not come along and join in the fun @eylz619 and @jelenaa 😁✍️🦆
I love it! Harry is such a so kind and charming goose-pecked gentleman 😄😄😄
Nice one as always, Eddie W 😻
hehe that was a bit of fun, and still thinking about the other picture 🤣
I'm sure you'll come up with a funny wee story for that pic too.😄🤣
Yes I might do later 😀
When Harry Met Sally must have been an explosive meeting. I wonder if they ever ate together at a restaurant and caused a scene? Probably lol
haha I think she might have caused the scene🤣🤣🤣
