The cage bird and the bat

　　A bird was confined in a cage outside a window. She often sang at night when all other birds were asleep.

　　One night a bat came. He asked the bird why she was silent by day and sang only at night.

　　The bird answered, “Last year when I was singing in the daytime, a bird catcher heard my voice and caught me in his net.Since then I have never sung by day.”

　　The bat replied, "But it is useless to do this now that you have become a prisoner." Then he flew away.

one night a bat went to the cage bird and asked:"why was you silent by day and sang song at night ?"

the cage bird said:"last year,when I was singing in the daytime,a bird catcher heard the song and caught me in the cage .since then I never sing in the daytime."

the bat replied:"It is now useless to do this because you had become a prisoner."then he fly away.
