This is the story of Vern and Fern Tern. They're in a long tern relationship. having pledged their eternal love for one another.
Fern was recently voted the Top Songbird of her class in the last one hundred years - she's known as The Tern of the Century. 
Here, Vern competes in agility training. Watch him - tern on a dime. Now, originally I had Photoshopped a dime of weed instead of the coin you see under his webbed feet. But that became a problem because not one tern was left unstoned. 
The two of them really know how to get along. Occasionally, when Vern gets a bit snarky, Fern simply terns the other cheek.
Once when Fern was ill, Vern was very worried. When she took a tern for the worse, he tossed and terned all night. Thankfully, she soon reached a terning point and recovered. Vern rejoiced.
Fern says she's thrilled to have Vern in her life. They belong together. He has a good character. So does she. And well, you know, one good tern deserves another. 
Recently, Vern proposed to Fern and she accepted. For their wedding day, they've selected the song "Tern, Tern, Tern" for their first dance. It's by the Byrds, of course. (this too is a Photoshopped image. The bird on the left flew in from a different photo)
You're all invited to the ceremony. If you're unable to attend, please send your "egrets". ;)And speaking of Birds, I wish all my fellow Canadians a very Happy Turkey Day! And a Happy Columbus Day to my Amurikan friends.
