When the bustard came to it, it swallowed it. And when the insect wanted to leave, the ocean prevented it from going. Then the hunter would come, slaughter it, and place it with it. He would tie another insect to the ocean, if there were bustards. And the Harisi bird, Abu Taira, which is white, and is a bird slightly larger than the bustard, and has a neck pouch seven cubits long, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, swallows dozens as well, like the bustard. Some of them catch small birds with nets. This is the least profitable of the hunters, because it is the work of catching birds. Abu Musa and his ilk would go to the desired hunting spot, near a river or a pool, and set up his net, which is woven with a mesh and has a shape like this. And it has four legs, and from them is tied.
