intrebare:

sintagma problematica din limba sursa este IN SCRIS sau pe alt tip de suport? daca e in scris, nu are rost sa cititi mai departe (decat daca vreti sa va distrati de ce-mi trece mie prin cap)!

fiindca tot repetand eu in minte 'siji bird, siji bird" in incercarea de a-mi da seama daca am mai auzit sau nu despre aceasta pasare (?), mi s-a parut ca seamana grozav de mult cu "ouija board".

ok, fiti ingaduitori cu mine - e ora 2 dimineata :)

Six mois aprčs...

Am lucrat intr-o sectiune a bibliotecii unde nu am acces de obicei, anume la \'biology and life sciences\', si mi-am amintit de frustrarea legata de misterioasa siji bird. Dupa ce am parcurs numeroase enciclopedii si alte tomuri in care nu era nici o referire la vreun siji sau ceva asemanator, am luat la rand cartile mici si vechi. Iata ce am descoperit in \"Birds of the West Indies\", de un autor pe care-l cheama James Bond, no less:

Cuban bare-legged owl (Gymnasio lawrencei) (page 182)
Local names: Citunto; Sijú Cotunto; Cúco; Cúsco

Si o alta bufnita, din alt gen (pagina 183):
Cuban Pygmy owl(Glaucidium siju)
Local names: Sijú; Sijucito; Sijú Platanero.
Urmeaza o descriere stiintifica si niste amanunte simpatice: \"The Cuban Pygmy Owl is the smallest of the West Indian owls and is one of the most abundant. Being largely diurnal it will probably be seen and almost certainly be heard by anyone strolling through the Cuban woodlands. Like others of its family it is very sluggish and allows a close approach. The notes are remarkably un-owl-like and quite unmistakable. They may be described as a shrill, rather deliberate \'ku-ku-ku-se-se-si-si-si\'. If heard close at hand the effect is quite startling.\" (p. 183)

Asta o fi?
