Early in the morning, Flocks of bronze-colored sandpipers travel in groups; They, too, stand by the breakwater, Their eyes cautiously watching; Their mates stay around, Calling, guarding; They use themselves as the center of the living territory, Forbidding the intrusion of small swallows.
清晨的時候，小心地溜轉眼珠的鉛色水鶇，有同伴隨後，鳴叫著，警戒四周。他們以自己為中心，定出生活的領域，禁止小剪尾侵入。
