An owl flew - a cheerful head. So she flew, flew and sat down, and turned her tail, but looked around and flew again - flew, flew and sat down, turned her tail and looked around and flew again - flew, flew ...
This is a saying, and this is what a fairy tale is. Once upon a time there lived a crane and a heron in the swamp. They built themselves at the ends of the hut.
The crane became bored of living alone, and he decided to marry.
“Let me go woo a heron!”
The crane went - tyap-tyap! - kneaded the swamp for seven miles.
Comes and says:
— Is the heron at home?
- Marry me!
“No, crane, I won’t marry you: your legs are in debt, your dress is short, you fly badly yourself, and you have nothing to feed me with!” Go away, lanky!
The crane went home without salty slurping. The heron then thought about it:
"Than to live alone, I'd rather marry a crane."
Comes to the crane and says:
- Crane, marry me!
- No, heron, I don't need you! I don't want to marry, I won't marry you. Get out.
The heron wept with shame and returned home. The heron left, and the crane thought:
“In vain did not take the heron for himself! After all, one is boring.
Comes and says:
- Heron! I decided to marry you, marry me!
- No, crane, I will not marry you!
The crane went home. Then the heron thought:
“Why did you refuse? What is it to live alone? I'd rather go for the crane."
Once upon a time there were neighbors in a forest swamp: a crane and a heron. They built huts on different sides of the swamp. But soon the crane became bored of living alone, he wanted to marry:
- Dike, I'll go woo my neighbor heron!
The crane went through the swamp to the other side to the neighbor's house, comes and says:
- Are you at home, heron?
“Home,” she replies.
- Marry me!
- Oh, no, crane, I won’t marry you: your legs are long, and your dress is short, you yourself don’t fly well, but you have nothing to feed me with! Go away, lanky!
The crane went through the swamp to his home without salty slurping. Meanwhile, the heron thought better than to live alone, it’s better to marry a crane. Now the heron has gone to visit the crane and says to him:
- Crane, marry me!
- No, heron, I do not want to marry now, I will not marry you. Go away to your side of the swamp.
The heron did not expect such a reception, burst into tears and returned to her home. And the crane, meanwhile, thought better of it, that in vain did not marry a heron, it is boring to live alone in a swamp. He comes again to the heron and says to her:
Heron! Still, I decided to marry you, marry me!
- No, crane, I will not marry you! - said the offended heron.
The crane went home again, and while he was walking, the heron thought better of it, that it was in vain to refuse, and she herself went to the crane to woo. But now the crane did not want to marry her. So they still go to each other through the swamp, but they never get married.

About the fairy tale
Russian folk tale "The Crane and the Heron"
The Russian folk tale "The Crane and the Heron" is a fairy tale about the relationship of people to each other, about the attitude to life and to oneself. Reading such fairy tales provides an opportunity to gain the right experience and learn to prioritize life, using for this not living one's own mistakes, but fictitious stories of fabulous animals.
In this short and, at first glance, very unpretentious story, a large number of complex psychological problems are hidden.
Unfortunate is the one who always doubts - this is the quintessence and main essence of the tale of the crane and the heron. Reasonable doubts, of course, never hurt, however, endlessly fluctuating in the choice and constantly changing your decisions is also not the right tactic, and this is exactly what the heroes of the Russian folk tale “The Crane and the Heron” do.
It is necessary to appreciate the present moment and a good attitude towards oneself - this is another deep thought that the story of the adventures of two marsh birds leads to. Expecting apparently more profitable parties, the heron missed her chance for happiness. Hearing the proposal of the crane, she could not immediately meet, which led to such sad results.
The next message, which follows from the previous one: every word, before it is expressed, must be carefully considered and weighed. Both characters changed their minds after they had a chance to think and analyze the situation. But you can’t take back what you’ve done, and you can’t return the words back.
The happiness of the heroes of the fairy tale was also prevented by pride and vanity - qualities of character that cannot be relied upon when making a decision. Each of the heroes is naturally endowed with excessive self-conceit, which does not allow either the crane or the heron to come to a reasonable decision. But before drawing such conclusions, it is necessary to get acquainted with the text of the tale itself. What is its plot and what are its characters like?
Summary and main characters
There are only two characters in the story. As the name implies, these are two birds: a crane and a heron. Both heroes live in a swamp, but have built their own housing at its different ends. One fine day, the crane got bored and decided to woo a neighbor. But got rejected. The heron could not discern a potential husband in the crane, accused him of inappropriate appearance and inability to provide for the family. After the failed groom left, the heron realized that she had made a mistake and went to the crane to ask him to marry her. But the insult has already changed the plans of the crane - he refused to marry the heron. However, after weighing everything, he again returned to the previous decision. This time the heron refused. So this story of unsuccessful matchmaking ended with nothing.
There are no complex plot twists, no fantastic events, no magical characters in this story. Everything is extremely simple and close to real life. It is possible that it is precisely due to this simplicity that the essence of the tale and its moral will be obvious even to the smallest reader.
