Description

Kanay is a small bird frequently seen flying above the river. This string figure represents the bird, which is about to jump into the river. After the design is finished, the figure-maker releases the loops from his/her thumbs, and the bird ‘jumps into the water.’ Images: 02: a small bird, kanay 03: ‘the small bird’ is flying away (Darja Munbaŋgoapik) 04: ‘the small bird’ has flown away (Darja Munbaŋgoapik)
