Young Scissor-tailed Flycatchers on my fence. Adults seem to be always on the move and my photos of them are blurry. I’m happy these youngsters posed, even if only for a few moments.



The Friday Fictioneer Challenge: Write a 100-word story based on the photo. As a brief summer respite, some prompts are being reused. This week’s prompt was my first Friday Fictioneer story (May 2014).

The Scar
Ow! A sheep bit Trina’s hand as her arm dangled out the window. Her index finger was bleeding, next to her scar. She bared her teeth, growling at the herd.
The scar. She had been five and the goat she was feeding nipped her finger, thinking it a treat. Nana cleaned, bandaged and kissed it to make it better. Nana was in a nursing facility now, but Trina hadn’t visited in months.
She looked at her scar again. Taking out her phone to video the sheep, Trina smiled. Sunday I’ll visit Nana. Lots to talk about this time.
