THE SWALLOW AND THE CROW

The Swallow and the Crow were practicing their acrobatic stunts. Soon they were quarreling with each other about who had the more beautiful feathers and wings. The swallow was bragging about her beautiful colors and was called the Crow’s color drab and dull. Finally, the Crow said to the swallow
“Your feathers are all very pretty in the spring, but are no protection from biting winds, my feathers protect me against the long winter’s cold. “
