On a very hot and sunny day, a thirsty crow was flying in search of water. Due to the hot
weather, most of the ponds had dried up. Suddenly, he saw a vessel on the ground. When
he flew towards it, he saw there was very little water at the bottom of the vessel. While
thinking about how he could drink that water, he saw little pebbles lying around. He started
dropping them one by one into the vessel. After some time, the water level rose. The thirsty
crow quenched its thirst and flew away happily.
