Spring has come again, and the warm spring has arrived. The sky was blue, and the green of the trees was beautiful. A pair of birds built a nest in a tree. The female bird laid three eggs. Two weeks later, the chicks were born. Three little chicks came out of the nest. They were very cute. The parent birds brought food. The chicks chirped loudly and opened their beaks wide. The parent birds fed the chicks. The chicks ate eagerly. The parent birds took care of the chicks diligently every day. The chicks grew bigger little by little every day. After a while, they started imitating their mother and father, flapping their wings.
