One by one, a flock of small birds perches on a telephone wire. Sitting close together has problems enough, and then comes along a large dopey bird that tries to join them. The birds of a feather can't help but make fun of him - and their clique mentality proves embarrassing in the end.

Der große Vogel darf nicht zu den kleinen Vögeln auf die Stromleitung. Einfach, weil die kleinen Vögel es nicht wollen. Was auf den ersten Blick wie eine simple Animationsfilmalberei aussieht ist auf den zweiten Blick ein Plädoyer gegen Diskriminierung. Und ja, die kleinen Vögel lernen vielleicht etwas zu hart ihre Lektion. [Sneakfilm.de]

Well talk of being hoist with you're own petard... A tiny bird perches on the telephone wire where it is soon joined by a dozen or so of it's fellows. This looks like a pretty routine event for these flighty friends. The equilibrium is shattered, though, when a much larger, ganglier, bird arrives and they really do disapprove. They are downright unfriendly towards their visitor - but maybe they ought to be kind else they might find themselves embarrassed. This is quite an entertaining and nicely animated, if very short, feature that extolls the virtue of sharing and not judging a book by it's cover.
