Three Is A Crowd

On realising three is a crowd
the male mandarin duck takes flight
I’m sure with those handsome good looks 
he won’t be on his own tonight

I am sure he won't, Julie. I love this. We once saw a pair of white geese broken up by an intruding (handsome) Chinese goose. So sad for the male who first swam behind, then left. I really hope he found another partner. This poem made me think of that incident.
