Finally those earrings fell - then it must have become the owl-berry.
The following autumn the man returned to the place he had been sleeping and there was a vine growing with red berries that looked like the earrings the owl had been wearing. After that the Lenape called the Bittersweet vine Kukhusëwim - the "owl berry."
