bird storyDeep in the beautiful woods of Adam, high up in a tree, on a branch hanging over the lake, was a family of birds. These birds were kingfishers, and they were all very young babies, raised by PaPa bird, who fed the baby birds with fish from the lake every morning. All the baby birds were happy under PaPa's care, and God blessed PaPa bird with more and more baby birds, until the nest got too full. So PaPa bird went to God, who chose 6 baby birds to start a new nest in the woods of Ngee. The baby birds, who already loved each other so much by then, did not really want to be parted, but they knew they had to, so they did, and they flew off out of the safety of their woods in Adam to the uncertainty of Ngee.
Now the 6 baby birds were: MoCha bird, who was really puffy, Eepie bird, who squeaked when poked, La La bird, who sang beautifully; Ann bird, who twittered like she came from another wood, Fa Fa bird, and finally, Funny bird, who was the joy of the nest.
So when the baby birds first built their nest they didn't really know what to do. So PaPa bird came along to help them, and God sent more baby birds to join them, but the nest was quite shakey,and some baby birds fell out occassionally. Not to mention that there was the stress of wind and rain, and the baby birds were battered from all sides trying to keep the nest together. PaPa bird still came frequently to watch out for them, but there was only 1 PaPa bird, so he couldn't be with either nest all the time. So PaPa bird began to teach Ann, LaLa, Funny and Eepie birds how to take care of the nest, catching fish and feeding the rest; fighting off other predators; being brutal with the pursuit of the fish; looking out for one another... and God blessed the birds, so they learnt pretty fast, and soon, the nest was pretty stable.
