Marco waited under his favorite palm tree.
"Where are they?" he wondered.

"They're back! They're back!" Marco shouted. "The snowbirds are back."
"There goes the peace and quiet," said Webb.
"How many this year?" asked Coral.

Every year Marco had been curious about the snowbirds. So today he asked Goose, "Why do you come here every winter?"
"Ah, it's paradise here, Flamingo. Never cold and NO SNOW."
"What's snow?" Marco asked.
"You don't want to know!" Goose replied.

So, he asked a group of ducks, "What's snow?"
"You don't want to know!" they replied.

Marco spent the night reading.

"Who migrates north in the winter?" asked Webb.
"Where are the palm trees?" asked Coral.
"Marco is certainly a rare bird," said Shelly.

Well, maybe not so rare after all...
