"I wanted to make a thank you drawing for all the running around you did on all those cold days, but I ended up messing it up," I said, showing Kinya what I'd made of him. He'd tried to cheer me up then, telling me it was getting warmer soon.
And as soon as it warmed up even a little bit, I'd gone back. And the stunning blue Kawasemi had come out, two Cormorants had made a special trip from a nearby river to welcome me back, and the egret also came from that river and made a special catch for me.
What do you mean, he caught it for himself, because he ate it himself? He let me see and photograph it, so the thrill really was "for me" too!
