This reminds me of a short short scene assignment at UCLA’s screenwriting program. He said, She said in one word dialogue. In this case, not one word dialogue, but since we have birds who like the Zuni Indians communication in sound shapes (sorry for going esoteric there)… close to one word dialogue.

Big boy bird (top): Not just a pretty picture?

Small female canary (below): Not just a big oouf?

Big boy: Pretty, pretty, pretty…

Small female: No, no, no…

Big boy: Hungry? I have worms. So many worms it might make you faint.

Small female: You’re very handsome.

They fly off flirting in clipped tweeps. Communicating stuff we humans shouldn’t be privy to. [End]
