Almost An Egg

Miss Milligan has been extremely vocal lately.

I open the back door and I hear "Bwaaaark, bwaaaark!"

I hang out the washing and I hear, "Bwaaaark, bwaaaark!" 

I go to sleep and  think I can hear "Bwaaaark, bwaaaark!"

While my father and I were shopping I became convinced that Miss Milligan had laid an egg. I was so sure of it that I think I convinced Dad too. In fact, Dad said he wasn't going to answer the phone next time it rang because he thought it would be me yelling, "I've got an egg!"

                                                     That's not an egg, it's an orange


But although I looked high and low all around the coop and garden I couldn't find an egg...but I'm certain we're getting closer.
