Artwork description

Es que a los de mi pueblo nos llaman \"cucos\". Una antigua leyenda cuenta que mis paisanos vieron como un cuco se llevaba una aceituna en el pico y otra entre las uñas, el pueblo en pleno lo persiguió hasta la cercanía de Coria donde, viéndose acosado, el animalito dejó caer uno de los frutos. Curiosamente donde se dijo que había soltado la aceituna sigue llamándose \"El parador del cuco\".
