How Birds Got There Colours

• One day the Peaceful Dove caught his foot on a sharp plank of wood on a broken off tree branch. The Dove called for help, and all the birds heard his cry and came to the place where the Dove lay. The Dove was in great pain and his foot had swollen up.

• The other birds gathered and provided shelter for him with their wings. Some brought water for him to drink and some bathed his foot with water. All except Crow, who was in a bad mood and was angered by the attention the other birds were giving the liitle Dove.

• The Crow told all the other birds and that they were wasting their time, the Peaceful Dove was done for ,And indeed the foot was swelling more all the time. But the other birds paid the Crow no heed and finally they had had enough of him and chased him away.

• Then the Galah had an idea. She rushed forward and bit the Dove’s swollen foot with her sharp, hooked beak. The Dove cried out in pain and a myriad of colours, all the colours in nature flowed out of the Dove’s foot and splashed all over every bird gathered ‘round.

• Some got only a little colour, and some got one or two colours only. Some were splashed with many colours, and the Rainbow Lorikeet was splashed with a so much colour that he looked like the rainbow itself!

• The Galah was splashed with rosey rink and grey, and the little Peaceful Dove was almost drained of colour till he was a light mottled grey-brown.
