Movie description:
A bird found nesting on a local riverbank intrigues a group of children in this film about amateur ornithologists. The children abandon their favourite play area to study for their junior high school entrance examination and discover the nest of a rare African bird. Pals Tsuyoshi and Toru have different approaches to their work. The former is remiss in his studies, while the latter, under his mother’s supervision, spends long hours of intensive study. Tsuyoshi’s preference for studying the African bird leads him on the path to ornithology and journalism. He issues his own newspaper, but Toru’s mother will not allow her son to have a copy of the paper for fear it will interfere with his studies.
