THE CANARY TAKES A WALK!

He came out from the underbrush. He was carrying a white parcel.  He placed the parcel on the ground near the walkway, gingerly fixed this way and that. He left the parcel on the ground and went to the small fence which protects walkers from the gulley below. He began to warm up. He finished, gave the parcel one last look and then began his walk.

As I passed the parcel I slowed down to have a look.  Under the white sheet was a bird cage.  In it was  a canary.   A bird lover bringing his canary with him as he went on his walk. It seemed an odd
but nice thing to do.

I felt sure the man enjoyed his walk. The canary must have enjoyed being outside. I went on my way smiling.
