Adventures with Mel and Syd

A night full of silliness that’s what it was, 
once again trivia was all the buzz. 
Three in a tie till the Kanga Q: was asked, stumping viewers

As night turn to day not a sound to be heard,
sorry to report no sightings of our favorite bird.
Return tonight to see what you can see, maybe just maybe the owl in the tree.
