ある白頭鷲家のお話、その1です。 This is a story of one Bald Eagle family.

「早く帰って来なさい〜！もう、日が暮れかけているのよ〜！」と、お母さん。 “Hurry! Come back home now. It’s almost sunset.” said mother.

「まだ獲物探ししてたいんだけどなー。」と、子供。”Aww~, I want to keep hunting food a little longer…” mumbled her child.

「聞こえてるでしょ？早く帰ってらっしゃ〜い！」”I know you can hear me. Hurry, come back home!”

「母さん、私が呼んでこようか？」と、お父さん。”I could go and bring him back home, my dear.” proposed father.

「そうね、お願いします。」「よっしゃ！」”Thank you, please do.” “Got it!”

「でも、やっぱり私が行きます。お父さんは魚を釣って来てください。」”Oh, I will take him back home. Would you go and get a fish for us?”

その後日が沈んだ後も、お父さんが一人、湖畔の氷の上で獲物が来るのをじっと待っていました。Later on that day, the father was sitting by an icy lake even after sunset. He was waiting patiently for a fish to catch.

零下11度の夜はこうしてふけていくのでした。寒い！ The night went on like this down to 11 degrees Fahrenheit temperature. Soo cold!!!
