NOTES
משנה ה
הגוזלות שעל גבי הסלים - These birds were not literally tied atop the baskets, but rather tied to the sides, so that they would not soil the fruit. ומה שבידם - The רמב"ם says that this referes to additonal birds carried by the people, aside from those tied to the baskets; The תוי"ט and others believed them to be additional fruits carried by the people outside of the baskets.
משנה ו
רבי יהודה אומר - The משנה ראשונה explains the difference between the ת"ק and ר"י is whether the waving of the bikurim was to interrupt the recital (ר"י), or done simultaneously with the recital (ת"ק); there are, however, more complicated explanations of the מחלוקת given by others, and others still understand ר"י to merely be explaining the ת"ק.
