bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying
there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. As the frozen bird lay

was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon
began to sing forjoy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to
investigate.Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile
of cow dung,and promptly dug him out and ate him.

to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy."
Well,why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?" replied the bull.
They're packed with nutrients." The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and
found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the
tree.The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second
branch.Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the
top of the tree. He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of
the tree.
