#26: Critics

Two taxi-dermists stopped before a shop window in which an owl was displayed.

They immediately began to criticize the way it was mounted. Its eyes were not natural; its wings were not in proportions with its head; its beak was too pointed; its feathers were not neatly arranged; and its feet were too small…

When they had finished with their criticism, the owl turned its head – and winked at them.
