Selection for Listening

The crow is a clever bird with glossy black feathers. It often cries, “caw, caw, caw!” It builds its nest on a tall tree, far above the ground. It sometimes acts as a guard for other crows. It gives the alarm at any sign of danger.

The crow is quiet and naughty. It steals and hides anything small and bright-colored. It loves to eat newly planted corn. Farmers put up scarecrows in their field to frighten the crows away.
