:58:41
Hey, pretty.
:58:47
Come here.
:58:53
How do you do that?
:59:00
Your mother said enough for tonight.
It's almost 3 o'clock.

:59:04
I'm working on my ornithop...
:59:06
Come on, enough's enough!
We're supposed to be asleep!

:59:09
Tell him.
You're his father.

:59:11
Come on, son.
:59:12
Leave the bird alone.
:59:18
Then the bird's feather.
:59:20
It has a hollow shaft, with
feeders for blood circulation.

:59:24
On either side are branches, barbs...
:59:27
which branch into barbules...
:59:29
which have little barbicels
with hooks on the end of them.

:59:32
It can all be pulled apart,
like a zipper.

:59:38
And then re-zipped.
:59:40
A bird runs its beak
through its feather...

:59:42
re-zipping feathers
that have come apart.

:59:45
Flying is much more than flapping wings.
:59:47
A bird can flap its wings
and not move an inch.

:59:50
When it wants to fly...
:59:51
the slightest flicker
sends it up to the sky.

:59:56
You must feel that air has substance
and can hold you up.
