The congratulations on the New Year. A New Year's story.


Birds flew to the next house and saw a scattered bread crumbs.

The birds began to peck a crumbs.

A resident of the house heard a knock. "Apparently, the New Year has come."

The resident of the house opened the door and went out to the fresh air.

- Happy New Year to all! - the birds chirped. - And on our own behalf, and on behalf of whales. They are very happy that they were released from the whale prison, and wish everyone a health and happiness!

- I wish to everybody a good flight and a great floating! I wish a less sausage, produced from Far Eastern seals, and a more a quality honey!

The birds clapped their wings in sign of approval and flew on to continue a new year's greetings.

Somewhere, in a far sea, a killer whale slapped  upon a surface of the water by a fin, and a beluga whale emerged from a sea water and said loudly:

- Happy New Year to all!

The resident of the house realized that the New, 2020, Year, had come.
