The Kingfisher, the Skylark, and the Nightjar
The kingfisher is expert at fishing. He flies low over the water, takes aim, dives vertically and makes his catch. When the lark tries to imitate him, however, he almost drowns. The nightjar is expert at catching bugs. He flies horizontally in a straight line, catching the bugs in his big mouth, but when the lark tries to do the same, he chokes. But the lark can fly high in the sky and catch worms in the grass. The author used to work in a zoo, and portrays the birds’ individual characteristics accurately and humorously in a way that is true to life. <Hiromatsu>
