Plot summary
Mister Bird lives in a large forest together with all the other birds. His friends are very happy with their lives – they love building up their fancy nests and enjoy singing in the choir. But Mister Bird doesn’t care about nest building and singing. He wants to experience something different.
He leaves his home and tries to live like a pillow and like a hedgehog, like a snowman and like a carrot and like a fox.
One day he meets the charming Miss Birdie, who is on her way to the Great Song Festival. Mister Bird follows Miss Birdie as suddenly singing in the choir seems to be extremely exciting. At the festival his fellow birds ask him to be their conductor. Mister Bird gladly agrees to try conducting and he manages superbly. He suddenly realizes that it is so good to be amongst friends again. When the festival comes to an end, the birds honour him with a huge wreath of oak leaves. The wreath turns out to be a perfect nest for Mister Bird and Mrs Birdie.
