Wondering, how birds communicate with each other. Then this is a great story to know how they do. Chikki”s mother wanted to give a message to bitti aunty, but chikki was lazy to fly to her aunt’s place. He decided to try a different way of communication. Will the message be conveyed promptly? Read on to find out.
Everyone once in a day will be like Chikki to delegate work to others. I would say Chikki is smart and not lazy. That she beautifully delegated her task. She made sure the message passed through different birds.
Young kids will find this chirpy tale interesting and easy to spot common Indian garden birds. We spotted sparrows, kingfisher, eagle, parrot, flamingo in the story and Nathan wanted to know how they talk or chirp. This leads to talking more about birds and their habitat. Near our home, we usually spot eagles, parrots, sparrows, crows and Pigeon, and this story reminds us about them.
Nathan even made a cute birdhouse for them and we kept a bird feeder for them. Will you use this bird post for sending your message?
