This week we'll talk about two stories from the #JatakaTales. Both are about clever monkeys outwitting some kind of water monster. One of them claims to be a cardiologist expert enough to perform surgery on himself. The other is as observant as Sherlock Holmes and as resourceful as MacGyver.

The character this week is a giant crane. The bird kind. not the mechanical construction equipment kind.
