One morning, she stood a stream and looked into the water. She want to have a big, fat fish for breakfast. There are a lot of fish here, she said, but theyre too small for me. I deserve only the biggest and the best!
Just then, a bigger fish swam near the shore, but the heron still wasnt interested. I wouldnt bother to open my mouth for such a small fish! she said.
Then heron was that a big, fat fish would come soon. She waited beside the stream, but only small fish appeared.
As she waited, the sun rose into the sky. The water became warm and all the small fish swam away. The heron was hungry, but she could only find a tiny snail.
