Ka-ka-krap

Ka-ka-krap

I Would like to relate to your readers the legend of the Ka-Ka bird.

The male Ka-Ka bird resides at the equator, the female at the South Pole. Each year, in the late spring, the male bird can be heard as he wings northward, uttering his famous cry, which is, incidentally, echoed daily by students leaving E006: "Ka-ka-ka-ka-christ, it's ka-ka-ka-cold".

Mary-Helen Ward.
