A group of crows are gathered and chatting. “Thanks for comic everyone! Who’d like to start? Alessandro?” “Sure!” says Alessandro “For this week’s flower share I brought an apple blossom! Delicate, simple in form, modest and subtly charming”. They are all admiring the flower at Alessandro’s feet. “Pretty” says one. “Beautiful specimen!” continues the first crow, “One of my favourites. Thank you for sharing! Who’d like to go nex–” they are interrupted by a loud clearing of a throat. “AHEM”. The group of crows looks up to see another crow, perched on a branch nearby. It swoops down, something in its talons. It lands the the middle of the group in a dramatic way, to reveal the most perfect example of a magnolia flower. The group stares in an entranced silence. The strange crow declares “I didn’t prepare a speech”.
