Twist

To unite by winding one thread or strand around the other.

What a bright sunny day it’s going to be.                                          

After having a breakfast of eggs and sausages, we headed for the river. I’m with a group called, Birds in Flight, we were looking for Canadian Snow Geese.

On the second day of bird watching, the sky blackened with birds migrating, I thought, I saw a Golden Eagle in flight.                                  

I wasn’t watching where I was walking and my ankle took a bad twist! It turned out 

I was wrong about the Eagle and now how was I going to get back to the van?                                                                 

Two fellows from our group each took me under my arms and helped me hop back to the parking area where the van was.

Another twist of fate, the van had a flat tire, as they twisted the lug nuts off the wheel, 

I though so much for my bird watching day!
