action

Many small sparrow-like birds sit on a cable between two telephone poles . When a large, long-legged bird tries to join them, they make fun of him because of its voice and shape. The latter, however, is unimpressed and sits down on the phone line between them. However, due to its great weight, the line sags, so that all birds inevitably slide towards it. Since they do not like this, they hack on the feet of the big one, he can no longer hold himself in the normal sitting position, falls and therefore finally hangs with his feet on the line. He lets go toe for toe under the beak attacks and falls (due to the very sagging line from a very low height) head first to the ground. The tensioned cable clicks upwards and catapults all birds into the air. The resulting enormous acceleration causes them to lose their feathers due to the inertia and fall naked to the ground again. Now the big bird laughs at the little ones who hide their nakedness out of shame about their nakedness.
