- (continued from previous page)cuckoo comes. She is so lazy that she never builds and nest but lays her eggs in the nest of a robin. The little robin hatches the eggs carefully and then some day a young cuckoo comes out of the egg. The little robin has enough to do to feed her little children and now she feeds the young cuckoo. Gradually the young cuckoo grows up and pushes the little robins out of their nest. The cuckoo also robs bird's nest and many little birds can be seen flying after her to have revenge on her for what she does.
