I love to see them foraging for food together while they watch out for each other by give warning squawks whenever a threat appears... idk,<br> there just seems to be a comradery between them that you don't see all that often these days.\n\nAnyhoo,<br> relationship goals hey? lolz\n\n<center>\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nThanks for stopping by and reading my post,<br> I really do appreciate your time.\n\n### And remember to keep smiling,<br> it makes people wonder what you're thinking...!\n\n<br>\n\n![Kindest Regards (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/VBf96Pj.png)\n\nIf you enjoyed reading my post,<br> please follow,<br> comment and upvote.\nAll photos,<br> stories and graphics are my own work unless otherwise noted.\n\n<br>\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/nPCnREd.png)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\n[![stnicholas2018.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/g9mDbqfL-st-nicholas2018.png) ![level.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/90x100\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/PIAXLLxw-level.png) ![weeklyAuthor.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/egEMzTZF-weeklyAuthor.png) (http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/board.html?user=alphaccino.art)\n\n<sub>Make your own steemitboard footer with [this post (https:\/\/steemit.com\/steemitboard\/@arcange\/steemitboard-how-to-create-an-awesome-footer-with-your-awards) by @arcange<\/sub>\n\n[![posts.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/60x70\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/7Fl6DhKA-posts.png) ![comments.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/70x80\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/CfPTGHgA-comments.png) ![upvotes.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/fj8XdQTm-upvotes.png) ![rewards.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/H0ZXY3Xu-rewards.png) ![replies.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/70x80\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/LPJ6ISuu-replies.png) ![upvoted.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/60x70\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/Ug2XON9b-upvoted.png) (http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/board.html?user=alphaccino.art)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nProudly representing\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/WGuBGxi.png)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nProud supporter of @steeming-hot\n\n[![steeming-hot-bot_small.png (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmdCimXD2sHmZFpicaiPQvLwHc8T9mbn1PmU5f9QgbsT4M\/steeming-hot-bot_small.png) (steemit.com\/@steeming-hot)\n\n<\/center>",<br>"json_metadata":" \"app\":\"pruner\",<br>\"message\":\"See you on the other side!\" " |
