The Invitation by Carol Schmitz

The ravens took off like black jets, inviting everyone via their extensive noisy network. Honks, chortles, screams, squonks, and raucous caws were heard by every desert dweller. “From bite-size to bigger guys!” the birds chanted. One raven placed a saguaro blossom and sprigs of chuparosa between the ears of a jackrabbit. Inspired and excited, the animals began fashioning their adornments from the abundance of materials right under their noses. The rodents refrained from noshing on the supplies.
