Exchanges on birds

Conspiring to fill
the world with more bulbul song,
they hop, dash and dance.
- me

The iora dons
a glossy black mantle.
Monsoon approaches.
- Alaka

I love the steadily
increasding impatience
in a koels' call.
- Max

The courting shikras
chase each other.
Monsoon is near.
- Alaka

The pigeon couple
coo mournfully in their nest.
Monsoon is coming.
- me

The mournful pidgeon
coo excites gastric juices
of a hungry cat.
- Max
