The Raven And The Crow
The raven saw the crow perched on the church spire in the middle of town and demanded he make himself scarce.
"I'm the king of the birds and I deserve the best roost."
The crow scoffed. "I don't think so."
The raven puffed up his feathers and flapped his wings threateningly, but the crow was unimpressed. As they were almost exactly the same size, it was unclear who would win in a fight.
"You're a crow, no different than me. Just because one time a woman mistook you for a raven doesn't mean you're better than the rest of us."
