NAME:

Quick Zabete

One morning, Zabete puts her beautiful beak out of the nest.
– Brr! – She says, ruffling her feathers – It starts to get cold! Too fresh for a seagull like me!
– Hey, Zabete! We're here!
Hundreds of seagulls are perched on electrical wires like music notes on a sheet of music. And everyone is waiting for fellow Zabete to leave for the hot regions!
- I'm going! I'm going! – says the stunned seagull – I'm just fixing my nest for next spring!

After a bit of cleaning, Zabete lands, in turn, on the wire.
– When are we going to Africa? - She asks, swaying in the fresh wind.
- Now! On three, we take off! One two Three!
And look at Zabete and her colleagues on their way to hot regions! The trip will be long and exhausting, but good crunchy insects will give you strength on arrival…
