    “Evidence that Jay may need to move to Nantucket”

    While other members of the tribe watched, this elder performed what one group member claimed was a gesture “Invoking the Corn and Onion Spirits” and “Repelling the Harsh Winds of the North.” However, according to Horschfield, this is quite similar to a rarely observed mating stance of the Punga Lake tribesman, displayed in imitation of the now-extinct local Jumpin’ Lake Bluejay renowned for its mating prowess; some ancestral rite may be the origin of both. An example of local magical rituals, this gesture is part of an annual ritual celebrating the ripening of winter and the forthcoming spring. As always, the ritual was followed with a fruit pie, a “board game,” much chatter, and a brief episode of seemingly arhythmic but exuberant dancing to the group’s traditional music.
