Story - Eagle –
There is a story about a little eagle that fell out of its nest and landed in a chicken yard. The eagle grew up among the chickens and, although he looked a bit different, he learned to walk like a chicken and eat like a chicken.
One day the young eagle looked up into the sky and saw a beautiful eagle soaring above. The little eagle in the chicken yard thought, Oh, I would love to be able to do that!
As the eagle soared overhead, it looked down and saw the young eagle below. Suddenly he flew down & asked, "What are you doing here? "The little eagle replied, "I am just here in the chicken yard where I have always been."
The great eagle looked and said, "Spread your wings, boy. You do just what I do. Follow me." Then he flapped his wings and lifted off the ground. The little eagle had been living among these turkeys so long that he didn’t know who he was. He fly off into the sky never to return to the chicken yard again!
