I once saw a bird in the river.
Once the feathers are wet, they become too heavy to fly.
This bird was thus trapped on the surface of the water.
The more it struggled to stay afloat, the more its wings got wet.
The bird kept bobbing it head up and down on the surface of the water.
It kept struggling for a long time, grasping for air with its diminishing strength.
As time passed, I saw the head popping up above the surface of the water less and less.
And eventually no more.
