Bird Lover! (A Funny Story) Poem by Edwin Drood

Santa is a evening bird lover. One day he stood in his backyard and heard an owl hoot. So he thought he`d give a hoot back. To his surprise and delight the bird hooted again.
The next night the same scenario occurred. All summer, Santa and his feathered friend hooted back and forth. He even kept a log of the 'conversations.' Just as he thought he was on the verge of a breakthrough in interspecies communication, his wife, Jeeto, had a chat with Preeto (Mrs Banta) , her next door neighbour,
'My husband spends his nights calling to owls, ' she said.
'That`s odd, ' the neighbour replied. 'So does my husband.'
