Once upon a time, an Eagle was flying over the fields when it saw a lamb grazing below. The Eagle swooped down, grabbed the lamb with its powerful talons, and carried it away.
A Jackdaw saw the whole thing and was impressed by the Eagle's strength and skill. The Jackdaw thought to itself, "I can do that too!" So it flew up into the air and came diving down onto the back of a large ram.
As the Jackdaw landed on the ram's back, its claws got tangled up in the wool, and it was unable to fly away. The Jackdaw flapped its wings frantically but could not break free.
Just then, a Shepherd who was watching his flock saw the Jackdaw stuck on the ram's back. The Shepherd came over, untangled the Jackdaw's claws from the wool, and took it home.
The Shepherd's children were amazed when they saw the Jackdaw because it looked so different from the other birds they knew. The Shepherd explained that it was just a Jackdaw and nothing more, but it had tried to be an Eagle and got itself into trouble.
And so the Jackdaw learned a valuable lesson: it is better to be content with who you are than to try to be something you're not.
Once upon a time, way up in the sky, an Eagle was zooming around, wearing cool sunglasses like a movie star. "Ah, flying solo is the life!" he said, feeling the wind tickle his feathers.
Down below, a little lamb was happily munching on some tasty grass. "Ah-ha! Snack time!" said the Eagle. In a quick move that looked like something out of a superhero movie, he scooped up the lamb who managed to let out a surprised, "What's going on?"
Now, a Jackdaw was watching the whole show, eating pretend popcorn and having a great time. "Wow! The Eagle sure knows how to make an entrance and a quick lunch!"
Feeling pumped up, the Jackdaw took off into the sky, spinning and twirling like she was on the best playground slide ever. "Look out, everyone! Here comes the amazing Jackdaw!" Swooping down, she aimed for a big, fluffy sheep she thought looked super huggable.
Smack! The Jackdaw landed on the sheep's back, and oops—got all tangled up in the wool. "Uh-oh! I'm stuck like gum on a shoe!" she said, flapping her wings but not going anywhere.
Just then, a Shepherd walked over, laughing a little. "Well, what do we have here? A bird or a new type of woolly decoration?"
The Shepherd helped the Jackdaw out of her woolly mess. "Thanks! I thought I was going to become a new fashion trend—'sheep with bird'!"
Back at the Shepherd's house, his kids went wild when they saw the Jackdaw. "Dad! Is it an Eagle? Is it a superhero?"
"Nope," said the Shepherd, grinning. "This is what you get when you try something super big without thinking it through. Say hi to our new friend, the Jackdaw!"
The Jackdaw winked at the kids and shook her feathers. "I guess I learned something today. Flying close to the sun? Not for me. But flying close to a sheep? Well, that's a different story!"
And there she was, still a Jackdaw but with a story so funny and crazy, she could make anyone laugh. Sure, she reached for the stars and landed on a sheep, but at least she landed somewhere, right? And in the middle of all this silliness, the Jackdaw figured that maybe, just maybe, being yourself was the best adventure of all.
High above fields, an Eagle soared,
Spied a lamb and quickly scored.
Up in the sky, they took their flight,
The Eagle proud, in pure delight.
Watching close was Jack the Daw,
His eyes grew wide with awe.
"I can do that," he thought, then flew,
Toward a ram, his courage grew.
But oh! His claws in wool entwined,
Jack flapped but couldn't leave behind.
Just then the Shepherd came to see,
And set the tangled Jackdaw free.
Back at home, the kids amazed,
At this bird that Shepherd praised.
"It's just a Jackdaw," he explained,
"Who tried too hard and got detained."
Jack the Daw had learned that day,
It's best to live in your own way.
Admire the strong, the bold, the grand,
But be yourself, that's what's truly grand.
