Short story


                                                                Bird Migration


Once upon a time there lived a flock of black-necked cranes.They were migrating south from Tibet to Bhutan and the leader said “we should always migrate in v shape.” They began to migrate.The smaller ones asked “why should we always migrate in v shape lets try A shape.
Then they all began to form A shape. The leader was annoyed and shouted “we have to fly only in v shape because we can conserve energy and keep track of each other!” If one get tired that bird can take the back line and the active ones can come in the front line.Therefore, all agreed to form V-shape pattern.

After sometime all were bored except the leader.They all asked “when will we reach the destination?” The leader said “After six hours.”  Some birds suggested to play hide and seek. One bird told the leader to kick of the game by counting 1….2…3. Within no time all the cranes started hiding. The leader was really annoyed and shouted “Migrating is not a game!” They were scared a little bit this time. It started becoming  dark and the leader said “we should stop for the night.” They found a place to halt for the night. After a while the small ones insisted the  leader to tell them  a story. The leader narrated by saying  “Once upon a time the small cranes went to bed,” and abruptly stoped there. The smaller birds  complained that it was a terrible story and the leader said that it was their favorite story. The little ones sadly went to bed.

The next day they were migrating and out of no where an eagle showed up and chased them. The leader was scared and flew away. The little ones were not scared and they attacked the eagle.
At last the eagle was chased and the leader was shocked. The little ones shared the importance of cooperation and the leader was so happy. The journey came to the destination with lots of challenges and difficulties, however all of them settled happily in Bhutan.
