A Story of Bird Life 1Soon the little birds were big enough to fly. The first bird that tried his wings flew from one branch to another. His parents praised him, and the other baby birds wondered how he had done it. 2The little one was so proud of it that he tried it again. He flew and flew and couldn’t stop trying. 3In a little time the other birds learned to use their wings, and they flew away and away. They found their own food and made their own nests. 4Then the old birds sat silently and looked at each other a long while. At long last, the mother bird asked, “Why don’t you sing?” 5“I can’t sing,” the father bird answered. “I only think and think!” 6“What are you thinking of?” 7“I am thinking how everything changes. The leaves are falling, and soon there will be no roof over our heads. The flowers are all gone. Last night there was a frost. Almost all the birds have flown away, and I am restless. Something calls me, and I feel that I must fly away, too.” 8“Let us fly away together!” the mother bird said. 9Then they rose silently up in the air. They looked to the north; far away they saw the snow coming. They looked to the south; there they saw green leaves. 10All day they flew. All night they flew and flew, till they found a land where there was no winter. There it was summer all the time; flowers always blossomed and birds always sang. 1.
