Let birds fill the skies," said God with authority.
And it was done!
Bright-colored birds in all sizes and shapes swept across the sky. God made beautiful swans with long, graceful necks, tiny hummingbirds with fast, fluttering wings, and soaring eagles that could speed through the air. Soon the birds' twitters and chirps and peeps filled the land with happy music. And each day they lifted their voices in joyful praise.
