A story about long ago when all the birds of the land were arguing. The eagle and the hawk argued over who was the best hunter. The pelican and the ibis argued over who had the longest beak. In addition, all the parrots were arguing about whom had the prettiest feathers. So one little bird, the Wa:Tji bird, suggested that to end all the arguments, they have a contest to see who could fly the highest.
