The Nother Birdie Story

The Mommy bird was happy that all of her baby's could fly. Now the nest
that she had built was really too small. So one day she decided to make a
new nest. Making a nest is a lot of work. At least she had her three baby
birds to help. She started gathering sticks and weaving them together. It
takes a long time to make a nest. While Momma bird was working on the nest
her baby birds kept gathering sticks and twigs for her. She had never made
a nest this big before. When she was almost done the nest started leaning
on the tree branch. Then it fell all the way to the ground. She had worked
hard trying to make a big nest and now it was on the ground. She flew down
and tried to pick it up, but it was too heavy. So one of the baby birds
tried but it couldn't move the nest either. Then another baby bird tried
and still the nest remained on the ground. Then the Momma bird had an idea.
She told all of the baby birds to try and lift it together, at the same
time. They all grabbed the nest, including Momma, and tried to lift it
again. This time the nest lifted into the air. When they got it back to the
tree the baby's held the nest while Momma reattached it to the tree. She
made it extra strong this time. Now they all had a place to live. All they
had to do was work together.
