Leaving

"Mom! Dad! You’re eating it all! I’m hungry!"

"You think all those flying lessons were free? You’re paying for them now. Fly off and get a fish yourself."

"But fish are underwater!"

"You’re an osprey, kid. Go get ‘em."

"Forget it. I’m leaving. Good bye."

"That’s the idea."

True story, translated from screech by ManyMoose, 9 September 2005.

OSPREYS

"Just inch out the branch, son."


"I'm afraid, Mom."


"Stretch your wings like this."


"No!"

"Stretch."


"No!"

"It's easy. Just like this."


"Like this?"


"That's it! Good, son!"


"I'm still afraid, Mom."

"Here comes Dad. Tomorrow we fly."


--True story, translated from screech by ManyMoose.
