I see a water bird.
The bird is resting on the earth.
Dead plants are at the bird's sides.
I come to be located at the bird's front.
I quack. The bird quacks.
The bird doesn't feel scared. Good!
My container has bread. I give the bread to the bird.
I hear quack quack quack quack quack quack quack at my back.
I spirally move.
Ha ha ha!
A large group of many birds wants my bread ah.
