"A bird?" Teru and Tome said at the same time. A bird that was a spirit and not a spirit, according to Mob.
"A spirit and not a spirit? Like...Oppenheimer's cat?" Tome scratched her head.
"I think it was Heisenberg...no, Kirchhoff." Teru said as they slowly approached. Tome nodded, as if that somehow sounded more correct instead of less.
When Teru saw it up close in Mob's hands, a lightbulb suddenly went off in his head. He may not have known foreign physicists, but he knew enough biology to get by. "That's an Oriental turtle dove. It eats a lot of grain and they walk slowly along the ground. Wheat, millet, sunflower...oh, and snails too. They mate in summer and they're together for life." This one looked mature but pretty lonely, though.
