The nest
- Today I've witnessed a good city story.
- Three men dressed in a janitor's uniform sat on the low fence of the front garden.
- In front of them there was a parking begirted with a wire mesh.
- And near the mesh the fourth man hunkered. - Hey guys!
- - he said suddanly - Look here, it's the bird's nest!
- His workmates stood up in a moment and appeared by him.
- All of them looked throug the mesh at the line of untouched grass and young tiny shrubs.
- There, dangerously close to cars and it's weels, was the nest, maden between three strong sprigs of willow herb.
- - Wow, the real nest, and in such a bad place...
- - Yeah, it should be a young silly bird...
- - They'll crush her. All that cars. - Yes. - Yes.
- They stood still a bit, have staring on the nest and scratching their unshaven chins.
- - I saw a few bricks near the shop - said the youngest finaly.
- - We can make a border to protect her.
- And they have done it.
- Three men went to the parking, and one stood opposit the nest for they can't loose the place.
- In a few minutes three men and the parking keeper has appeared from the other side of the mesh.
- They dropped bricks in the grass and made a border. - Look, guys.
- It's the giirl's car.
- And it's close to the nest.
- - said the keeper.
- - You know, how girls drives.
- She can move back insted of moving forward...
- - Let's move the car a bit. - Yes.
- - Ok. - Let's do it.
- Four men reverted the car a little.
- And then they went away and waited, because the bird, frightened by sounds and actions, was gone.
- After a few minutes the bird has reterned.
- Men looked to each other and smiled.
- - OK, the break's ended.
- It's time to work, guys! They've gone.
- And left the nest with hesitated but protected little bird.
