The song I posted explains why the owl says\n\"ticu-ticu\" (and there may be a Spanish pun here, but\nI couldn't get my teacher to commit himself on the\nsubject); Wijzer's version explains both why the owl\nsays \"cu\" and why the \"snake-eater bird\" is silent.\nAnd it explains why you might name an invisible town\nPajarocu.  If there's anything else, I'm missing it.\n\nJerry"
