Once, when the two Californias ran alta y baja, high and
low, along the Pacific, there lived a rare and majestic
bird named Nacho, the only pitacoche for thousands of
miles. He was proud of his brilliant feathers and haunting
songs, but what good were they with no one to share them?
Then the swallows came to nest and Nacho met Lolita. His
heart filled with affection. Was it possible for two such
different birds to find happiness together? And what would
happen to Nacho when Lolita and the other swallows migrated
back to South America?
