The rest of his days Jonathan spends alone.
However, the Elder condemns Jonathan to exile on the Far Cliffs for violating the dignity and customs of the Seagull Family. It is "either the greatest shame, or the greatest honor." He expects praise, because he succeeded in something that not a single gull had done before him. The oldest tells Jonathan to go into the middle of a circle formed by seagulls. In the evening, another council of the Pack gathers. In the afternoon he manages to make several aerobatics. In the morning, Jonathan accidentally crashes into his Pack at breakfast, but manages not to hit them.
Forgetting the failure, he trains and achieves success. He decides to reconcile and return to the Pack, but on the way home he finds a solution: speed can be controlled by reducing the length of the wings. Recovering, he hears a voice saying that Jonathan is just a seagull, not born for high-speed flights. One day, rapidly descending from a great height, Jonathan strongly hits the water and faints. The whole next week, he learns to fly at high speed, but nothing comes of it. His parents are worried, because their son turned into "feathers and bones." After obeying the persuasion, Jonathan lives a week like the rest of the seagulls, but then he realizes the meaninglessness of such an existence and returns to training. Jonathan neglects the main occupation of seagulls - the extraction of food. He is trying to bring his flying skills to perfection. Jonathan violates all the unwritten laws of the Pack - hangs in the air, flies low over the water and develops tremendous speed. We are thankful for their contributions and encourage you to make your own.Ī net with a bait is thrown from a fishing vessel, and a flock of seagulls flies " to get food crumbs by cunning or force." Only one seagull named Jonathan Livingston makes its training flights in complete solitude. These notes were contributed by members of the GradeSaver community.
