Two tall trees are growing in the woods. A small tree begins to grow
between them. One tree says: "Is that a son of a beech or a son of a
birch?" The other says: "I can't tell." Just then a woodpecker lands in
the sapling. One tall tree says "Woodpecker, you are a tree expert. Can
you tell if that is a son of a beech or a son of a birch?" The woodpecker
takes a taste of the small tree. He replies: "It is neither a son of a
beech nor a son of a birch. That, my friends, is the best piece of ash I
have ever put my pecker in!"
