The Crow And The Pitcher

A thirsty crow came upon a pitcher which contained only a little water.

He tried to lower his beak as far as it could go, but still couldn’t reach the water.

He tried everything he could think of to reach the water, but all his efforts were in vain.

At last he started to search for pebbles, and dropped them one by one into the pitcher.

The water level in the pitcher rose gradually, and the crow could get his drink at last.

Moral

Necessity is the mother of invention.
