The Talking Bird

Kiaw is a talking bird found in the thick forests of Palawan. It lives in the tree
trunks. To catch it, men have to climb the tall trees. Only few people possess this kind
of bird because it is difficult to catch.
The Kiaw is a very interesting creature. It likes bananas, papayas and red
pepper. It also drinks a lot of water. This black bird takes a bath at least five times a
day.
The Kiaw is also very loyal to its master. To make the Kiaw talk, its master
repeats a word many times. This rare bird can learn to talk in three months. The Kiaw
loves its master very much. When it is given away, it feels very lonely, then it dies. It
