天工造物,无奇不有。德国的一只黑天鹅最近竟然"爱"上了一条天鹅形状的小船。 <p></p><p> A swan in Germany has apparently fallen in love - with a swan-shaped paddle boat. </p><p></p><p> 在德国明斯特的一个池塘中,一只痴情的黑天鹅在过去的3个星期里一直守在一条天鹅形状的船的周围,和它"谈情说爱"。而这条船的大小足足是它的5倍。 </p><p></p><p> The bird has spent the past three weeks flirting with the vessel, which is five times its size, on the lake they share in the town of Muenster. </p><p></p><p> 在Aasee池塘出租游船的彼得说,这只天鹅看起来已经被天鹅形状的船深深地打动,不能自拔了。 </p><p></p><p> Peter Overschmidt, who operates a sailing school and rents the two-seat paddle boat on the Aasee pond, said the swan appeared to be smitten. </p><p></p><p> 报道说,自从5月初,这只长有明亮的红色鸟喙的黑天鹅飞到这个池塘后,它就一直不离这条白色小船的左右。彼得说:"看起来,它似乎陷入了热恋之中。它保护着这条船,一直待在它旁边,而且如果有别的船只接近,它还会驱赶它们。""它认为这条船是一只健壮且富有吸引的雌天鹅。" </p><p></p><p> Mr Overschmidt said: "It seems like he's fallen in love. </p><p></p><p> "He protects it, sits next to it all the time and chases away any sail boats that get anywhere nearby. </p><p></p><p> "He thinks the boat is a strong and attractive swan." </p><p></p><p> 彼得说,这只黑天鹅迟早会发现它的"恋人"有问题,但是希望那个时候它不会太伤心。彼得还说,希望这只天鹅以后不要再犯类似的错误。 </p><p></p><p> Mr Overschmidt said the swan will figure it out sooner or later - but hopes he will not be too heartbroken by the discovery that his true love is not meant to be. </p><p></p><p> He said: "I'll wish him all the best and hope that he doesn't make the same mistake again."</p> |
