How Birds Got Their Feathers

Many years ago… many, many years ago… birds weren’t what they are today. They were featherless, naked little animals without wings. They were quite a disturbing sight. In those days… many, many years ago there was a little town known as “The Place Where the Trees Stand Still”, and that’s exactly the kind of town it was. Trees had no reason to move, since there was no wind to sway their leaves. Music didn’t exist either. Since birds didn’t sing, no one had been given the idea to make music. The only noise heard was the ruckus the animals made each time they saw a bird. Why? Because birds were the ugliest animals in this place where the trees stood still.
