藍鵲,賽德克語叫Prabak或Trabak。某個夏日,我到奧萬大的楓林區走走,我在林間聽到一陣鳥叫聲,讓我驚奇並觸動我心,我的視線往林間尋覓,哇…喔!我捕捉到台灣藍鵲的身影,藍白黑相間的色彩,多麼美麗呀!
後來,我帶著牠們美麗的影子,走訪各個賽德克部落,問起台灣藍鵲的生態習性,才知道牠們的生活會隨著季節變化。冬天,羽毛逐漸脫落,死氣沉沉!夏天則開始長出羽毛,逐漸纖細頎長!
難怪鳥類學家稱之「孕育生命的幫助者」,賽德族人讚歎「看起來美極了」(malu balay qtaan),以及日人的「山中公主」(Yama no mosume),這些讚嘆無不體現生命之美,依照祂的形像所造的萬物生息,因著上帝的靈,成為美麗的生命。
