1. a group of one species of animal or bird which eats or travels or is kept together, e.g. flock of sheep, of wild geese.

2. wool or cotton particles or debris used as stuffing or packing.
 together? This photo shows otherwise. What could possibly brought have these two very different species together?

Write a story inspired by this unusual picture. Experiment with how you tell the story. You can write from the third-person point of view. In that case, you would be the narrator NARRATOR. A pleader who draws narrs serviens narrator, a sergeant at law. Fleta, 1. 2, c. 37. Obsolete. , not a character in the story. Or you can write from the first-person point of view, using "I" in the story. Which will you be, the tiger or the orangutan orangutan (ōrăng`tăn), an ape, Pongo pygmaeus, found in swampy coastal forests of Borneo and Sumatra. ? Or as a third option, you could let each animal tell its own side of the story.
