Heron and Hummingbird
Heron and Humming bird were very
good friends, even though one was tall and awkward and one was small, sleek and
fast. They both loved to eat fish. Hummingbird preferred small fish like
minnows, but Heron liked the (1) … ones.
One day, Hummingbird said to his
friend, “I am not sure there are (2) … fish in the world for both of our kind
to eat. Why don’t we have a race to see which of us should own the fish?”
Heron thought that was a very good
idea. They decided that they would (3) …for four days. The finish line was an
old dead tree next to a faraway river. Whichever of them sat on top of the tree
first on the fourth day of the race world own all the fish in the world.
They started out the next morning.
The Hummingbird zipped along, flying around and around the Heron, who was
moving steadily forward, flapping his giant (4) …. Then, hummingbird would be
distracted by the pretty, flowers along the way. He would flit from one to the
other, tasting the nectar. When Hummingbird noticed that Heron was ahead of
him, he hurried to catch up with him, zooming ahead as fast as he could, and
leaving Heron far behind just kept (5) … steadily forward, flapping his giant
wings.
Hummingbird was tired from all his
fitting. When it got dark, he decided to take a (6) …. He found a nice spot to
perch and slept all night long. But Heron just kept flying steadily forward all
night long, flapping his giant wings.
When Hummingbird woke up in the
morning, Heron was far ahead. Hummingbird had to fly as fast as he could to (7)
… up. He zoomed past the big, awkward Heron and kept going until Heron had
disappeared behind him. Then, Hummingbird noticed some pretty flowers nearby.
He zip-zipped over to them and tasted their nectar. He was enjoying the pretty
scenery and didn’t (8) … Heron flap-flapping past him with his great wings.
For two more days, the Hummingbird
and the Heron raced toward the far-distant river bank with the dead tree that
was the finish line. Hummingbird had a marvelous time sipping nectar and
flitting among the flowers and resting himself at night. Heron stoically kept
up a steady flap-flap-flapping of his giant wings, propelling himself forward
through the air all day and all night.
Hummingbird woke from his sleep on
the morning of the fourth day, refreshed and invigorated. He flew zip-zip
toward the river bank with its dead tree. When it came into view, he saw Heron
perched at the top of the tree! Heron had won the race by flying straight and
steady through the night while Hummingbird slept.
So from that day forward, the Heron
has (10) … all the fish in the rivers and lakes, and the Hummingbird has sipped
from the nectar of the many flowers which he enjoyed so much during the race.
