The bulbuls did regain their birdie qualities. Unlike we humans who keep repeating mistakes, they put to use what they learnt from entering our room yesterday and remained outdoors flying around the balcony. Not to deprive them of their food, I kept the fruit on the balcony wall and the next moment this ever vigilant politician on the look out for opportunities and always eager to snatch away goodies meant for others, swooped down and carried it away.
His colleague, watched from a height to see if I am going to repeat my foolishness in emulating our government, and produce another fruit, in spite of observing the goodies never reaching those to whom they are intended.
All the while, just as the majority of us do, this flock of pigeons sat at a safe distance occasionally taking an indifferent look at what was going on. It was none of their business.
