Figs and Honey

Once his eyes have adjusted to the morning sun, he leaves his resting place to take a quick dust bath. (He has to keep his feathers in tip top shape, of course). Then he gathers all of his favorite fall items: fresh figs that have fallen to the ground, wispy wheat stalks for decorating, and bits of mahogany bark that can be used for cooking. He also visits a beehive for a jar of sweet honey — the perfect addition to any and all fig desserts.
