In golf, a Birdie is defined as a score of one under par on any given hole.The golfer wondered why they were so excited when a birdie was not an unusual during any game. It was only when he was led to the scene of the “birdie” that he understood what had happened. A small bird that few by had been struck dead by the ball of the other golfer. “Swerte mo dili eagle,” the golfer joked, “o gipangdakop nata mo ato.
