Mulukuku ("moo-loo-koo-koo")
came from the eastern mountains of Nicaragua to take up residence in the
Cashew tree ("Marañón") at my house. I named her after a
small town in Matagalpa whose Indian name has long since lost its
meaning. And Mulukuku, in exchange for bananas, mangos, and
bread-soaked-in-milk, provides a loud parrot-style wakeup call every
morning at sunrise. What more could you ask for in a pet?
