Once a jackdaw saw a flock of doves enjoying the good food. The jackdaw painted itself into white and joined the dove to enjoy the meal. Everything was fine until the jackdaw kept itself silent while eating. As the doves were having a nice conversation, the jackdaw also joined the conversation. As soon as it started to speak, the doves realised its true identity. The doves drove the jackdaw away by pecking it with beaks. Then, the jackdaw went back to its own flock of the jackdaws. As the jackdaw was white in colour, the other jackdaws also drove it away from their group.
Moral: Always accept your true nature, otherwise you will land nowhere.
