The Clever Crow and The Innocent Quail

In a bustling Indian forest filled with chatter and life, lived a slick crow on the lofty branch of an old banyan tree and a naive quail in a bush below. Both were neighbors, but as different as night and day.

One sweltering day, the village nearby was lively with the sounds of a vibrant festival. Both the crow and the quail decided to witness the jubilee that boasted a parade of colors and an aroma of sweet treats.

Venturing into the human gathering, our little quail was cautious and kept to the shadows. However, the crow reveled in mischief. Swooping down, he dove his beak into a lidded pot perched on a cowherd’s head, devouring the luscious curds within.

Image Prompt 2 [Seed: 12457836]: A mischievous crow diving into a terracotta pot of white curds balanced on the head of a busy cowherd amongst villagers at a colorful festival.

As the quail tried to scatter, the cowherd’s hands were swift. The innocent bird was ensnared, meeting a fate undeserved.
