Here are the winners for the first ever Feathered Friends Comment Contest!

There were so many good entries that I could not pick just one.

@bashadow made me laugh with his caption comment about pigeons doing what pigeons do best!

"Jordal looked over at his partner in crime Yearlo. He had spied the prey, two of them, one Yokal from the left, one Yokal from the right.
"Yearlo, they're coming. You ready?"
"All ready to go, and I mean I really, really need to go" he replied to Jordal.
"Then lets fly, I get the plump bald guy on the right, you take the skinny prima donna on the left.

With that Jordal, and Yearlo took to flight. They loved this game more than watching the chipmunks and squirrels play dodge the cars. There was just something satisfying for Jordal, hearing that loud plop on top of a bald head, then watching the arms come up flailing all over the place and the cursing and fist waving as he flew away, back to his perch.

For Yearlo, it was the hair, he just loved to make a mess of a ladies long locks. Especially the dainty prima donna type ladies. He found it so hilarious the antics, the screaming the crying the un-prima donna like cursing and swearing, He would cackle and coo all the way back to his perch."

@stevenwood told this marvelous story about what was happening in the photos that includes bullruns, conspiracy theories and a penguin suit!

" Scene One:

"I'm telling ya man, Bobbie V from three chimneys down told me. There's a huge black moggie moved in to the neighborhood and he's apparently a vegan, but I'm sure it's a ruse."

"Oh man what is it with you and local gossip, remember when you thought there was a bullrun coming on seed and you forced me in to your paranoid conspiracy of stockpiling too. The whole lot was being stolen by the rat-cartel and sold on the black market as we slept, the rest went mouldy!"

"This time the stool-pigeon has solid intel, he heard it straight from the beak of Jimmy 'the' Wing."

"Hey by the way, why is you disguised as a penguin?"

Scene Two:.

"Heyyy when are ya gonna talk to me, you can't keep givin' me the silent treatment all day"

"A penguin... A freakin' penguin... This waistcoat and tie cost me 26 meal-worms and you have the nerve to call me a penguin, Why I oughta..."

"Hey, stop, stop, there he is, the cat... Whoa he's a fat one, I don't get it, he's munching on carrots!"

"Let's go have a little chat with this wiseguy and make sure he get's the picture on who really runs this neighbourhood"

@pixresteemer overheard this one sided conversation between this house hunting couple.

"So this is it?
Really?
And what had I said?
Indeed yes ... 2 bedrooms!
Where should I stay with my eggs now?
And that view ... I said with a sea view ... not on an empty wall ...
pffff ... I really can never let you do anything alone!
Come on, we're out of here!"

Instead of paying out 3 Hive, I will increase the prize to 7 Hive. Several comments also received upvotes and ENGAGE tokens.

1st place @bashadow 3 Hive

And the runners up will each receive 2 Hive

@stevenwood 2 Hive

@pixresteemer 2 Hive

Thanks to everyone for taking the time to write fun caption comments for my pigeons!

Thanks, Pix! 😘

Thank you, that was a fun little contest.

And because of a generous donation from
@riverflows to the prize fund keep an eye out for the next comment contest- coming soon! Congrats to you!

Hola querida amiga @melinda010100 buenas tardes
Excelente concurso, felicitaciones, extensivos a los ganadores del perido.
aprovecho para desearles una hermosa tarde

congrats purple cow.png @bashadows , @stevenwood and @pixresteemer ! You have a great imagination 😄

Bravo to all participants !! 👏

I love when the congratulations cow joins in and does her dance! 😘

Haha ! I should animate her for even more fun, when I'll have some spared time 😁

Time seems scarce these days! 😁

That is not surprising to be honest... I have come to learn that Blockchain time does not follow the accepted rules of time in the real world lol.

There absolutely must be a shower of glitter and sequins too!

Hmmm... That may not be the most manly thing I have ever said in my life :D

😁 indeed !

Thank you so much Barbara, most appreciated :)

Some would say it is less imagination and more the strange stories that live in my head lol.

Take great care and have a wonderful Friday, before the dancing cow welcomes the weekend :D

I never would have thought of all these. Great imagination and congratulations to the winners!

I know, right? Some people are so creative!

Hihaaaaa!
Thank you so much... it's exactly what my human needs... I'm just not sure if I can tell him right now, he is looking very angry and shouting at his screen right now... must be the exam he has to pass that is coming near... 😉😂

Good news always helps a little! 🤗Congrats!

Awesome idea... love it. Tipping this post to sponsor next comment contest. Great idea.

You are incredibly generous! ❤️. What a delightful surprise. This will make a super addition to the prize fund. Now I must go see what I can find for bird photos for another contest. 😊

I was going to take some photos today, but it's a bit wet and cold! Waiting for warmer weather. And you're welcome - good ideas deserve good support! xx

Congratulations to all winners . :)

Yay!

Always a good story to be told via pictures, well done @bashadow @stevenwood and @pixresteemer

I hope everyone comes and joins in on the new contest this week!

Oh I have a sneaking suspicion they will indeed Melinda. Thanks for creating such a fun way to break from the deep, sometimes heavy writing that the blockchain normally signifies for me. Hope you are well, take great care my friend :)

Thankyou so much Joan. It is most appreciated. Take good care, have an amazing Friday and an even better downhill run to the weekend :)

Thank you ever so much Melinda. Firstly for running such a fun, feathery contest and the chance to be creative, engage with others here and secondly for the prize. I have had a disappointing week this week when it comes to the blockchain, last week I achieved my goal of top 20 in the EL this week apart from a ream of life-stuff I also lost my PC for days.

So this was nice to see when I did get back online! :)

I am hugely busy driving to the other end of the country to clear my youngest Daughters University accommodation on Saturday overnight into Sunday, but I will be by to take part again soon after.

I am also looking forward to posting in the feel-good community where I hear you help Barbara do a great job of promoting the best of the inspiring and fun side of life. I look forward to seeing you there soon. Have an amazing Friday, Melinda, take good care :)

I am so happy to have you taking part in the FF contest. I wasn't certain if I would do another one, but then @riverflows donated to the prize fund and it was the inspiration that I needed to do another one.

I love @barbara-orenya 's feel good community! As a matter of fact I just posted my alphabet challenge for the letter k moments ago. I need to get caught up on everyone else's posts.
I suspect that unless I get really busy I will not make the EL top 20 this week. I got caught up in a good book and haven't been able to put it down!

Be safe on your drive and good luck with the move!

Yes 'catching up' seems to be the standard operating model on the blockchain. There are so many fab people to visit and things we intend to do, there simply aren't enough hours in the day lol. I don't think it matters if you register in the top 20, your engagement is inspirational, your interactions meaningful I think that is head and shoulders above anything else.

Thanks for the good wishes, as ever they are sent right back to you my friend. we'll cross paths again very soon :)

I'm having difficulty keeping up with the posts in the Shadowhunters, Featheredfriends a FeelGood communities and am feeling quite neglectful towards friends who don't post there! All my commenting time and voting resources vanish so quickly!

I think many of us have experienced this Melinda. Like me, you leave a lot of meaningful comments and engage fabulously with people you cross paths with. There comes a time when it simply isn't feasible to keep up with everyone as often as we would like.

Likewise with projects, occasionally it may be worth posting that you are taking a break (even a week) from at-least one thing. Those that know you would understand 100% my friend. Voting resources are one of those things that people need to realise you simply cannot vote on every single thing you find interesting. A meaningful comment is often better than a vote anyway.

Having said that I understand entirely what you mean lol. I think deep down we are all just walking contradictions aren't we? :D

Take good care of yourself, have fun with it all and do not worry too much about it. You have a reputation for being one of the utterly genuine ones and I suspect people would understand any of these things I have mentioned fully :)

Thanks so much for your kind words! They mean a lot.

Are you home again? Did the move go smoothly?

I shouldn't complain ((but I'm British... It's a national sport!!!)) it went relatively smoothly but wow it was a heck of a lot of travel in such a short time. When my Daughter goes back to Uni in September it is less than 50 miles away, much, much better than an 800 mile round trip lol.

A happy aside from your contest is that it has prompted me to write a children's story, I have thought about this a lot over the years but let the fear stop me... I got such a buzz from writing that random little tale about Henrietta that I thought "What's the worst that could happen".

Have a wonderful week Melinda, this week will never happen again lol :D
