ทำไมนกจึงเป็นสีแดง?

Today photo is the lily pond in front of the old building. The red flamingo and the family of ducks have been here for several years. I once asked the gardeners why the flamingo was painted in red. The answer was that they did not have any paint in pink. So, they decided to use the red paint in the store room. Since the ducks looked too white, they also painted the ducks' wings in red, so they all looked harmonious! That's the artistic sensibility of the gardeners.

Several years ago, one security guard found a small baby turtle in the middle of the road. He decide to put the small turtle in this pond. The turtle had grown really big and heavy, everyone here got attached to the turtle and had to walk up to greet him in the morning. Then, one day the rain flooded the pond and the turtle got out of the pond at night. He disappeared with several big fish to the sorrow of the old security guard. The turtle was very tame and respond to familiar faces around the pond. So, having plaster flamingo and ducks are much safer emotionally. But the feeling is not the same. We stopped buying food for the turtle and fish; there is no longer the turtle topic to chat about every morning! Perhaps I have to find them a small python instead.

Wishing you peace, good health and prosperity.

Cheers.

A bit difficult! I am traveling to the country side. Very slow Internet and old version iPad cannot work very well.

You should share your photos, very professional!
Cheers.

That's kind of funny since the bird in question is not a flamingo, but a White stork. ;D

White stork

Still the story was good, while amusing. I had to upvote and resteem. :) Good going! I'm anxiously waiting for the next one!

Oh! Yes, you are quite right! All the gardeners told me that these were flamingos that's why red paint was used! I did wonder why they looked rather small. I wonder whether I should tell them that they used the wrong paint! No! Not a good idea! Then they'll have to repaint the birds and all the ducks!!

Cheers.

I love to try one photo everyday 😁 Thank you for sharing @kaminchan

So peaceful! I once had a huge tortoise, and one day she climbed right out of her wooden fenced enclosure and disappeared. Fortunately we are surrounded by farmland, so I think she is living a good life!

I like the story as I like the picture. I have seen flamingos only once in free nature, years back in Rumania. Very graceful birds. maybe a bit posh :-)

Hey! thanks for your comment. I hope your are well! I am waiting for your beautiful photos!

Cheers.
