Answer 1

A beautiful forest was full of lovely birds. They flew happily in the forest and sang melodious songs all day. One year, it was very hot and dry and there was no water for the birds. The birds stopped singing and flying around. The king bird suggested that they should migrate to some other place where the summer was not so fierce. Everyone agreed and flew behind the king towards another forest. A little sparrow, who was very greedy noticed some carts moving towards the village. These carts were full of baskets of grain and the sparrow dashed down to eat the grain. She was so selfish that she did not want the other sparrows to eat the grains and so warned them that the owner of the carts might kill them. The poor birds were scared and flew away with the king bird. Left alone, the greedy sparrow again flew down and started pecking the grains. Unknown to her, the owner had spread a net to catch the birds that came to eat the grain. The sparrow was caught in the net and taken away by the owner only to be kept in a cage. Now, the sparrow repented over her deeds but it was too late. She was held captive for the rest of her life.
