A Travelling Fish |
The
fish is called Blue Gularis because of its bright colour. People often
find them in the hollow of a tree. How on earth do they get there? With
the help of birds. The birds wade in shallow puddles looking for worms,
the wet mud clings to their feet and in the mud is the roe of the Blue
Gularis. When the bird has found its worm it flies off home to the hollow
tree, where it cleans the clay of its feet. The roe comes of well and out
hatch the young. People come out after the rain, find a puddle has formed
in the hollow tree, and in the puddle Gularis are swimming. |
