Birdhouse

The bedroom window was open. It could be seen from the street and it could be seen from the air by birds.

It was the birds who found this most interesting.

They circled the house, all wondering if they could get into the house and build their nests.

One daring bird made it inside. It was safe and this message was communicated to the others. Gradually they started to enter through the small gap.

Two weeks later the family returned from their holiday. There was a strange smell and a scratching noise coming from upstairs. 

After discovering the horror and devastation the father said: "We need to get them out. We need to destroy them."

One of the children asked: "Can't we save them? Can't we help them?"

The mother and father looked at each other knowing the child was right.
