The Woodpecker and the Fox: A Tale of Friendship and Food.

Once upon a time, in a forest lived a woodpecker with a red beak. One day, he saw some tracks on the ground and followed them to find a fox who was chasing after a hummingbird. The woodpecker was concerned and asked the fox, "What's the problem?" The fox replied, "I'm hungry and I want to eat that hummingbird."
The woodpecker thought for a moment and then had an idea. He said to the fox, "How about you come with me and I'll show you a better way to get food?"
The fox was curious and followed the woodpecker to a nearby farm where they saw a chicken. The woodpecker told the fox, "This chicken is protected by a robin. If you try to catch it, the robin will attack you. But, if you help me protect the chicken from other predators, we can share it for dinner."
The fox agreed and together, he and the woodpecker chased away a few other animals who tried to harm the chicken. In the end, they enjoyed a delicious meal together and became good friends. From then on, whenever the fox was hungry, he would go to the woodpecker for help, and they would protect their food together.
The end.
