FREE THEME**](https://ecency.com/hive-106444/@nelinoeva/feathered-friends-show-me-a-080619db85fd9)* *Hey, @nelinoeva*. How's life treating you? What's new? You've started a great topic. 2 birds - this is spring, this is love, this is the beginning of a new life. 2 pigeons usually symbolize the beginning of a new family. But I decided to show two drunken autumn sparrows. For some reason, they remind me of Chinese kung fu fighters in the style of "Drunken Monkey". * * * * * * * * * * [![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmS1RKtpWd1aJDgsQh8aGANNCzjnotZG8u52t9rNtA9C9V/0_0s_20220210_8_2.jpg)](https://images.ecency.com/DQmS1RKtpWd1aJDgsQh8aGANNCzjnotZG8u52t9rNtA9C9V/0_0s_20220210_8_2.jpg) It was a cold, though sunny, November morning. There is a large bush of bitter viburnum growing in my garden. In autumn, there are many bright red berries on it. But these berries can sag all winter, and no one will eat them. They're bitter. But there is a moment of the first strong sub-zero temperatures, when the berries produce some kind of enzyme, and they become not quite sweet, but filled with alcohol, for which the sparrows fly. * * * * * * * * * * [![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmasqpmvbBrSwXYdF3T4YQ559ohYs498VHQTxsusggowrc/0_0s_20220210_6_2.jpg)](https://images.ecency.com/DQmasqpmvbBrSwXYdF3T4YQ559ohYs498VHQTxsusggowrc/0_0s_20220210_6_2.jpg) Looking at this fairly large sparrow, I think it occupies a high rank in its flock. Maybe he's the leader? * * * * * * * * * * [![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmSyjBosWn2C7d4ybDiR25oBCkYbXexqonBz3FWUuHr5ha/0_20211014_5.jpg)](https://images.ecency.com/DQmSyjBosWn2C7d4ybDiR25oBCkYbXexqonBz3FWUuHr5ha/0_20211014_5.jpg) It was very funny to watch these sparrows. Especially after a dozen more birds joined them. They are up these drunken berries, and some sparrows even fell to the ground. But in the end, by some miracle, the sparrows managed to get on their wings and fly away from the bush, not far, but to the pole with electrical wires standing next to my house. In the Soviet film "The Irony of Fate," the main character, played by Polish actress Barbara Brylska, tells her boyfriend about a drunken visitor to her apartment - look how unattractive and unkempt he is. I can say the same about these sparrows.
