#13: Petra Lassen (Stjarna) on Aug 16, 2009
Pretty! Have you left us?
#14: Jane Doe (telly) on Aug 17, 2009
No, I'm still here. I have a new baby so time is pretty scarce. If he ever slept more than 15 min. during the day I might get more time to create...but alas, no luck there. :)

#16: Jane Doe (telly) on Jan 16, 2011
thanks MrsThing :)

I love this. My granddaughter loves unicorns. I live in the United States and she lives in Germany, but I'm sending her the link.
#18: Jane Doe (telly) on Jan 20, 2012
Thanks Edith. I hope she likes it. :)
#19: Edith Clark (eclark) on Jan 21, 2012

Lovely image. Fun solve.

I absolutely loved solving this puzzle...it is an image that brings me much pleasure. I happen to be watching a Harry Potter marathon, which I enjoy on many levels, so the unicorn being a useless instrument makes no sense to me at all, though...lol.

#22: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on May 17, 2021
it's just the horn, that's useless for making music. :)
#23: JoDeen Mozena (ozymoe) on May 17, 2021
Kristen...maybe ;)

Here's a scene from "The Last Unicorn" by Peter S. Beagle:

A blue jay swooped low over them on that first day of their journey, said, "Well, I'll be a squab under glass," and flapped straight home to tell his wife about it. She was sitting on the nest, singing to their children in a dreary drone.

"Spiders and sowbugs and beetles and crickets,
Slugs from the roses and ticks from the thickets,
Grasshoppers, snails, and a quail's egg or two --
All to be regurgitated for you.
Lullaby, lullaby, swindles, and schemes,
Flying's not near as much fun as it seems."

"Saw a unicorn today," said the blue jay as he lit.
"You didn't see any supper, I notice," his wife replied coldly. "I hate a man who talks with his mouth empty."
