In a barren landscape a chick hatches from it’s egg. To keep off the torrid ground, it hops onto an ox, also newly born. Ox meets the burden that he will carry on his back for the rest of his life: Bird. A pecking nuisance, that will not be easy to get rid of.
Bird is happy. He’s got Ox, his world, and everything is good. They belong together.
