103: Mouth

Photo Description:

Panel 1: In the middle of winding branches with various browns and greens is a tawny frogmouth named Pineapple and an elf owl named Peanut. Peanut asks them, “What’s wrong, Pineapple?”

Panel 2: Pineapple replies, revealing their bright mouth compared to their dull brown feathers, “I’m trying to hide my weird, yellow mouth but I can’t…”

Panel 3: Peanut responds, “I understand not everyone can physically mask their identity. I can’t hide how tiny I am. So, I’ve chosen to embrace it. It has gotten easier over time. Your mouth is really neat.”

Panel 4: Pineapple answers him, “Aw thank you. Maybe I’ll lessen my camouflaging and try showing off my mouth more.”
