...while below, a group of ornithologists from the university watched excitedly, hoping an egg would result.

Through high-powered binoculars, a taxidermist spots an Ozone Warbler nesting peacefully on a mountainside.
"We'll never get to him," says the taxidermist. "It's too steep and rugged."
"I have a helicopter," interjects an ornithologist from the university.

Ozone Warbler nesting frenzy

An ornithologist from the university was surprised to learn that a nesting Ozone Warbler can attract others of the species to nearby trees.
"This is an exciting opportunity to study these strange creatures, now that they have established themselves in the grove," said the professor.
Unfortunately, upon his return the next day, he discovered the Ozone Warblers were gone, so he went to the nearby Korean restaurant for lunch.
The waiter suggested he try the special, 오존 솔새, so he did.
"Is this pork?" he asked, gulping down the tasty fare.

A taxidermist prepares to seize an unsuspecting Ozone Warbler by the ankle. Sadly, no egg was found.
"Because of the unseasonably warm weather, the forests are full of the cries of the creatures," said the exhausted taxidermist.
Indeed, as he finished speaking, distant cries of "Hallop! Hallop!" could be heard echoing throughout the forest canopy.

A cook, a waiter and three customers from a nearby Korean restaurant gaze wistfully at the nest of an Ozone Warbler.


Perplexed taxidermists stand by as their prized Ozone Warbler is carried off by people from the nearby Korean restaurant.
"They told us to come by in a couple hours for their dinner special...," mumbled one taxidermist.
"I don't know," said another. "I would rather have stuffed it. I don't like Korean food. Man, what I'd give for a roast beef sandwich!"
"There were too many of them," said the third. "They said it was theirs, that they saw it first. But it's not fair because they didn't have a ladder! And now they're over there, plucking it. There outta be a law!"

A fan-tailed Ozone Warbler is spotted nesting in utility power lines.
"We believe the increased sightings of this unusual creature are due to the influence of El Nino," said an ornithologist from the university.

"We responded to a report* of an Ozone Warbler but instead found this heretofore unrecognized species," said a taxidermist.
"Too chewey," said a cook from a nearby Korean restaurant. "PFFTTT!

Disgusted taxidermists prepare to leave an Ozone Warbler in a sewer pond.

"They didn't tell us," complained one taxidermist, holding his nose.
"We drove all the way out here to find the damned thing in a sewer pond. Wadda they think we're gonna do? Forget it!"
An ornithologist from the university was less perturbed.
"It appears the creature has nested in the sewer pond to be safe from any predators. This helps ensure its survival."
Underscoring his point, a car full of cooks from the nearby Korean restaurant arrived, took one look, and quickly departed in a cloud of dust.
"It's down there somewhere," added the professor, "waiting for us to leave."
