    One fine morning, a kingfisher sat on

    the branch of a tree. She was busy eating a


    fresh fish which she caught in the river.
    A hungry cat ran under the tree and
    asked a piece of it. The kingfisher did not
    want to share the fish.
    The cat was very hungry so she thought
    of a way to get the fish from the
    kingfisher. She asked the kingfisher to
    sing.
    The silly kingfisher could not sing at all.
    But she was so flattered that she opened
    her mouth and tried. Of course she
    dropped the fish.
    The cat gulped it down hurriedly. Then
    she ran away laughing.
