Suspended beneath a power line, a taxidermist grabs an Ozone Warbler by the ankle.
"Now wadda I do?" he asks.

Deep in the peaceful forest, a lonely Ozone Warbler calls for a mate.
"Hallop! Hallop!"
Soon, perhaps, an egg!

Secure in its nest, an Ozone Warbler happily chirps "Hallop! Hallop!" while far below three cooks from a nearby Korean restaurant hold a silent vigil.

Deep in the forest, a novice taxidermist searches the nesting crater of an Ozone Warbler for an egg.
Unfortunately, no egg was found.
Neither was the Ozone Warbler, having been carried off and plucked by three cooks from a nearby Korean restaurant only minutes before his arrival.
"Why do I have to clean this up?" he complains, using gloves to keep the droppings off his hands..

High in the forest canopy, an Ozone Warbler rests peacefully.
Occasionally the silence is punctuated by its cry of "Hallop! Hallop!"
Then... silence! Is it laying an egg?

Squawking and snapping, an Ozone Warbler is pulled from its nest by three cooks from a nearby Korean restaurant.
"Warbler mad now," says one cook. "But wait 'til we pluck 'em!"

Squawking and snapping, an Ozone Warbler nesting on a 400 kVA power line is cautiously approached by a utility worker.
"I wish they'd nest in trees like other birds," said the utility worker, unhappily.
The creature was roped and lowered to three cooks from a nearby Korean restaurant.
"It's not fair," complained a taxidermist. "All the restaurants around here are Korean!"
