A nimble twist and graceful turn brought him beside his latest masterpiece—the intricately woven weaver nest, the culmination of his meticulous labour over the past few days. Casting a measured glance in my direction, he seized the opportunity, plunging his head into the tunnel and vanishing from view.

Within moments, she arrived, a picture of cautious grace, meticulously surveying the entire construction. With the completion of her inspection outside, she took one last lingering look before disappearing into the depths of the nest. Minutes passed before her reappearance. This was a sure sign of his success, undoubtedly accentuated by the tender touch he had adorned with his moustached lining.
