A swallow couple was moving their nest along with their hatchlings, one day. They had told their children to stay together and not to stray. But the youngest hatchling, Mae, was very adventurous. She had just learnt to fly and got distracted easily. Mae looked all around her while flying. She always stayed behind to notice flowers and insects. The parent swallows had warned Mae to stay with them. However, as they all started flying, Mae stopped again and again to admire beautiful things. Soon she realised that she was lost. Mae searched but couldn’t find her parents. She cried, regretting that she didn’t listen to her parents. With a glint of hope, Mae started flying again and called out to her parents. A parrot family saw the stranded swallow and tried to help her. Soon they found the swallow family. Mae apologised for not listening to her parents and thanked the parrots for the timely help.
Adventurous Mae
