The young seagull was completely exhausted after his first flight. He drooped his legs to stand on the green sea. His legs sank in it. He screamed with fright and tried to rise again flapping his wings. But he was tired and weak with hunger and he could not rise. His feet sank into the green sea and then his belly touched it and he could sink no farther. He was floating on it. His family admired his feat (achievement) and offered him scraps of dog-fish which he deserved.
