the power of life

the pet birds that were given to me were claimed to be both male. but i came back home one day and found to little white pebble in the cage and i wondered where they came from. and then i realised they were eggs. a few days later, i don't see those eggs again and i just thought they must have eaten them since they were so young and did not know what was going on. or maybe male birds lay eggs but are unfertilised? days later i realised that they hid it under the nest which a friend bought for them.. as if it was instinctive for them. days later, i found broken egg shells... they looked so sad... when i saw that i felt so sad too.
a few days ago, i found one of them sitting on the floor of the cage which was rare coz they usually liked to stand on one of the wooden stands. and i realised that one of them is instinctively sitting on an egg!!! this is the power of life. and its almost like they are doing a trial and error on how to best hatch an egg. ever since then, another egg was spotted. and the one displaying its instinctive maternal instincts is relentlessly sitting on them, displaying features of a responsible mother.
this is the power of life. and i felt so amazed.
