On the 4th day of instructions the jay fell asleep and was killed.
Finally Cikap-kamuy asked a dipper to be his messenger and the bird finally fulfilled the mission!

Humans had angered the god of fish with poor offerings, and so Cikap-kamuy corrected them and the famine ended.

お弁当-Kyōto has a very special owl omikuji that is only available a few days before the Gion Matsuri's July 17th parade.
The Hōka-boko's (放下鉾) 'fukurō-omikuji' was inspired by 'Baghdad' (バグダッド), the float's famous tapestry (donated by Minakawa Taizō 皆川泰蔵 in 1982).
