    The crow was soaring high in the sky, enjoying the freedom. He loved his life - free and unfettered.

    The crow landed by a lake to drink some water, where he spotted a beautiful swan. He was mesmerized by its beauty and couldn't resist complimenting it.

    Intrigued by the swan's words, the crow decided to meet the parrot. He flew to the forest where the parrot lived and was astonished by the parrot's vibrant colors.

    The crow complimented the parrot and shared what the swan had told him. The parrot chuckled softly and mentioned the peacock, a bird with many vivid colors.

    The crow's curiosity led him to a zoo where the peacock was kept. He couldn't help but gasp at the sight of the peacock's magnificent feathers.

    The crow complimented the peacock and shared his journey. The peacock sighed and expressed his wish to be a crow, free and flying.

    The crow returned to the lake and shared his experiences with the swan. They agreed that freedom was more important than beauty.

    The crow realized that he was indeed the happiest bird, not for his appearance, but for his freedom. He took off, flying high into the sunset.
