My Tales # 6 - Owl and Magpie

The owl and magpie settled on a large tree. They started a dispute. The fussy magpie proved that all black was once white, and the owl urged the magpie that it was not true. Those who argued hoarse defended their point of view. At that, forty waved wings terribly, and the owl twisted her head. The argument turned into a quarrel. In the end, both almost fell from the tree. The owl who watched them asked to stop the argument and added that the owl was not right. Owl was indignant and said that the truth behind it, and knowingly in the forest it is called "wise". To which the owl replied: "Of the two quarreling, the one who is smarter is wrong."

Moral of the fable: "Of those who quarrel two are those who are smarter".
