Tyupa, Tomka and the Magpie

When Tyupa is very surprised or sees something unclear and interesting, he moves his lips and tippy-taps: "Tyup-tyup-tyup-tyup..."

The grass rustles in the wind, a little bird flies by, a butterfly flutters up - Tyupa crawls, sneaks closer and tippy-taps: "Tyup-tyup-tyup-tyup... I'll grab! I'll catch! I'll catch! I'll play!"

That's why Tyupa was nicknamed Tyupa.

Tyupa hears someone whistling softly.

He sees: in the gooseberry bush, where it's thicker, little gray nimble birds - sponges are feeding, looking for any gnat-bug around.
