Did you know that trees and birds, bees and flowers could be kind to
each other? They =can=; I will tell you how.
See the pretty red cherries growing on that tree. All little children
like cherries, and the birds like them too.
A little bird comes flying to the cherry tree and asks, "May I have one
of these rosy little balls, please?"
"Yes, little bird," says the cherry tree; "take some, by all means."
So the bird has a nice fruit banquet with the cherries, and then, what
do you think =he= does for the tree?
"Oh!" you say, "a little bird cannot do =anything= that would help a big
tree." But he can.
When he has eaten the cherry he drops the stone, and sometimes it sinks
into the ground, and from it a young cherry tree springs up. The tree
could not do that for itself, so we see that

Birds and Trees are Kind to Each Other.
