Apollo the Swallow and Chack the Blackbird meet in the garden as fledglings when they are both learning to fly. Apollo explains that he is practicing flying to Africa - but Chack doesn`t believe him. Chack tells Apollo that the blossom on his favorite tree will eventually turn into orange berries - but Apollo doesn`t believe him. With the inevitable turning of the seasons, however, both birds learn to believe the other - and cement their friendship forever.
