Hummingbird and Heron
Long ago, both Heron and Hummingbird ate fish.Hummingbird, who was tiny and fast, ate tiny fish.Heron, who was big and slow, ate big fish.
One day, Hummingbird shared with Heron what he had been thinking.
"There may not always be enough fish for all the birds like us," said Hummingbird.
"There may not be," agreed Heron.
"Perhaps only one of us should eat fish," Heron suggested.
"Shall we have a race to decide who that will be?" asked Hummingbird.
"That seems fair," said Heron.
The birds decided they would race to a tree they both knew.
"It's a long way from here, though," said big, slow Heron."It is clear to me that the race will take four days."
"I accept that," Hummingbird said, thinking he could get there much faster.
They started the race the next morning.Heron flew straight ahead.Hummingbird flew in circles around his friend.
