A bird lived with her two young chicks in a nest situated in the middle of a farmer's crop. Now that the crop was ready for harvest, the bird wanted to move to a new location. However, her chicks were too young to fly, and she needed to search for a new place to build their home, which meant leaving her chicks alone. She was worried because if someone destroyed her nest while she was away, she would lose her babies.
In the evening, she overheard a conversation between the farmer and his wife as they discussed the upcoming harvest. The farmer said that he would go to the village to ask for help from the villagers. After their conversation, they went to sleep, while the bird spent the whole night thinking about a solution.
At sunrise, she ordered her chicks to listen carefully to the farmer family's conversation and to report everything to her in the evening. The chicks agreed, saying, "Yes."
That evening, when she returned to the nest, she asked the chicks what they had heard that morning. The chicks reported that the villagers were not free to help, so tomorrow the farmer would go to his relatives for assistance. After hearing this, the mother bird relaxed, fed the chicks, and slept peacefully in the nest.
The next morning, she told the chicks to do the same thing and then flew away. In the evening, the chicks said that the relatives were also busy with their work and would not be able to help him. "Anything else?" they asked in a high voice. The mother fed them and rested in her nest.
The following day, the chicks reported that the farmer had said he would start harvesting the crop the next day, and his wife had agreed to help him - they had decided to do the work themselves. Early the next morning, the bird moved with her chicks to their new home.
