It is not a beautiful bird, but none of the birds in that region have brilliant plumage. This bird is about as large as a chicken and it has a white breast and a black beak; its bill runs out to a sharp point, and when it flies it travels fast. It lives among rocks and on high cliffs. There are thousands and thousands of these birds that live there in the summer time. When it is time for them to lay eggs they go to some quiet place among the rocks and high bluffs. An Arewe knows its own eggs. Some of these birds have two eggs, but most of them have only one. The color of these eggs is green, with black spots on them, and are very large, being about as big as a goose’s egg. Arewes’ eggs are good to eat and every summer the na tives who live in that region go and get them, bringing two or more boats full of these eggs.—Alex Melovidov, Sixth Grade, A.
