It was a bright spring day. The sun was high in the blue sky. A group of sheep was grazing cheerily on the slope. The lambs with their delicate white coats and wavy tails were playing among themselves. The Shepherd, seeing that his rush was sheltered and upbeat, nodded off under the spreading branches of a large tree.

All of a sudden an Eagle swooped down from the sky. It jumped on a little sheep and carted it away so quickly that none of the alternate sheep even had sufficient energy to bleat. The resting Shepherd heard nothing.

A Crow was sitting on the tree under which the Shepherd lay snoozing. He had perceived how the Eagle had gotten the sheep and stole it away to his home.

'What a brilliant method to eat!' he thought. 'For what reason do crows search for old smelly nourishment?'

The Crow decided to do precisely as the Eagle had done. It had looked sufficiently simple. All he needed to do was to choose which sheep he needed, swoop down on it, and hold it as solidly as he could in his hooks and take off with it… Easy!

On the off chance that the Eagle could do it, at that point so would he be able to!

The Crow looked down at the flock of sheep to choose which sheep he needed.

Just underneath the tree, by the Shepherd, a large, old Ram was grazing. He had twisting horns and a thick substantial downy.

'Aha! He ought to be a decent supper for me!' thought the Crow insatiably. He was extremely hungry and the possibility of a huge succulent slam for lunch influenced his mouth to water.

The Crow swooped quietly and quickly down onto the Ram, similarly as he had seen the Eagle do and got a handle on it immovably by its wool.

'Also, now to take off with it to my home,' said the Crow to himself. He fluttered his wings energetically, however, couldn't lift the Ram.

The Ram was huge. He was much too substantial for the Crow to convey. The Crow attempted over and over, however without progress.

The Ram felt the Crow on its back and was generally irritated. Exactly what do you think you are doing, you annoying winged creature?' he snapped, scowling at him over his shoulder.

The Crow fluttered harder as yet, attempting to divert the Ram.

‘Stop that!' cried the Ram. 'Leave! Shoo! Leave me in peace!' He bounced and kicked and endeavored to shake the Crow off his back.

The Crow endeavored to take off, yet he discovered he couldn't move. His claws were gotten in the Ram's thick wool! The Crow pulled his feet along these lines and that. He fluttered his wings as hard as possible. But regardless of what he did, he just appeared to get stuck more solidly.

Goodness, how was he regularly going to get free? The Crow cackled noisily in dread and misery. The Ram began circling the tree, roaring with seething. The Shepherd woke up and discovered why Ram was making that frightful commotion? Were his sheep in risk? He sat up.

What a sight met his eyes! The Ram was running all around the tree. On his back was the Crow, screeching and attempting to ascend into the air.

The Shepherd started to giggle. Finally, wiping his eyes, the Shepherd held up. He halted the Ram as he kept running by and quieted him with delicate words.

At the point when the Ram was still, the Shepherd took a couple of shears from his sack. Holding the Crow with one hand, he deftly cut the wool to the point that the Crow was free.

'What did you think you were doing, my fine companion'' asked the Shepherd, taking a gander at the Crow. 'Playing at being an Eagle, would you say you were?'

The Shepherd burst out snickering once more.

The Crow was excessively humiliated notwithstanding, making it impossible to croak. He wished just that the Shepherd would release him so he could take off to his home and conceal his absurd head.

At long last, when the Shepherd let the Crow go, the Crow fluttered his wings and took off as quick as possible.

'Also, whenever you need to be an Eagle, ensure you pick a creature your size!' called the Shepherd after him.

The Crow, feeling silly and absurd, guaranteed himself that starting now and into the foreseeable future he would just do as other crows did!
