She searched for the owl here and there but could not find him as he was hiding in the dark hole of the tree. Not before long, she heard his friend saying, “Hey Swan, welcome to my home. Please make yourself comfortable till the sun sets. I can come out only at night.”

That night, the owl and the Swan had a great time talking to each other after a while. The owl made the special feasts for his friend and they celebrated their friendship that night.

The next morning, the owl and the Swan were sitting on the branch of the tree. At the same time, some people were passing through the forest. The owl started to hoot after hearing the noise. Those people believed that it was not a good sign to hear an owl hoot. So, one of them decided to hit the owl with an arrow. The owl flew away and hid inside the dark hole of the tree. Unfortunately, the swan could not move and she died. Also, read A Wise Parrot.
