Once upon a time there lived Drozd Eremeevich. He built a nest on an oak tree and hatched three cubs. Lisa Romanovna got into the habit of visiting him. He will come and sing:
This would be an oak tree
Cut down, cut down:
Repair plows and harrows
Yes, bend the runners!
Drozd Eremeevich at home?
He says:
The blackbird cried and cried and threw the baby to her. She didn’t eat it, she took it into the forest and put it away. He goes again, singing the same way:
This would be an oak tree
Cut down, cut down:
Repair plows and harrows
Yes, bend the runners!
Drozd Eremeevich at home?
He says:
Give up the cub! If you don’t give it up, I’ll cut off the oak tree with my tail and eat it myself!
He thought and thought - he burst into tears even more and gave away the second cub. The fox left and ate them at home.
At this time, Soroka Filippovna flies past the blackbird, flies and says:
What, Drozd Eremeevich, are you crying about?
How can I not cry? The fox carried away two children. He will come and sing:
This would be an oak tree
Cut down, cut down:
Repair plows and harrows
Yes, bend the runners!
Give it back,” he says, “child, and if you don’t give it back, I’ll cut down the oak tree with my tail and eat it myself.”
I thought and thought and gave!..
You are a fool, Drozd! - said the magpie.
You would say: Cut and eat!
The magpie has just flown out of the nest from the thrush, and the fox is running again - after the third cub. She came running, sang a song and said:
Give me back, child, or I’ll cut off the oak tree with my tail and eat it myself!
Cut and eat!
The fox began to chop down the tree. She chopped and chopped - and the tail fell off. Then the fox cried and ran away. He runs and says:
I know who taught Drozd! I will remember everything to Soroka Filippovna!
The Fox ran to the village and got dirty in the grandmother's kneader and lay down on the road. Crows and sparrows came to peck the Fox. And Soroka Filippovna flew in and sat on her snout. The fox grabbed the magpie. Then forty begged her:
Mother Fox, no matter how you torture me, don’t torment me with just flour: don’t put me in a basket, don’t confuse me with a washcloth, don’t put me in a pot!
The fox thought: what does this magpie tell her? She relaxed her teeth, but that’s exactly what the magpie needed: it immediately flew away...
So Lisa Romanovna was left with nothing.
A thrush was sitting on a tree, a fox came and began to scare him, saying that he would cut the tree with his tail and take the cub. This continued 2 times, the trusting blackbird gave up the children. And then the magpie taught Drozd Eremeevich what to tell the fox so that she would not come again. The fox was offended and grabbed the offender. Soroka Filippovna began to praise Lisa Romanovna, who loosened her teeth. The magpie flew away, and the fox was left with nothing.

Summary, brief retelling of the fairy tale "Drozd Eremeevich"
Drozd Eremeevich lived on an oak tree and he hatched three chicks.
But the Fox got into the habit of running up to the oak tree and threatening to cut it down, cutting down the oak tree with his tail.
Once she came running, she threatened to knock down the oak tree and demanded that she give up the baby. Drozd Eremeevich began to cry, but gave away one chick. But the Fox didn’t eat him, but took him away somewhere.
The Fox came for the second time, again threatening to knock down the oak tree with its tail. Drozd cries even more, but gives up the second chick. The fox carries him away and eats both of them.
The Fox left, Soroka Filippovna flies in, sees Drozd crying and asks him what happened.
Drozd told about how the Fox walks and promises to cut down an oak tree with his tail. The Magpie laughed, called Drozd a fool, and advised him to answer the Fox that he should nag.
Then the Fox came again, started threatening again, demanding to give up the third chick. Drozd answers her - he cut the oak tree with his tail.
The Fox began to chop the oak tree with his tail, but the oak tree did not break. But the tail fell off.
The Fox realized who persuaded Drozd to answer like that, and decided to catch Magpie. She smeared herself in the kneading bowl and lay down on the road.
The birds arrived, began to peck at the sauerkraut, and the Magpie flew in. The fox grabbed Magpie. And Soroka talks her teeth, advises her on various things. The Fox listened and let Magpie go.

About the fairy tale
Russian folk tale "The Fox and the Blackbird"
Russian folk tales are kind and instructive. Their content embodies the history and experience of the people who composed them. Each fairy tale contains a fictional story, sometimes similar to life. It also happens that a fairy-tale narrative reflects the dreams and fantasies of the people.
In any case, any fairy tale contains a moral. Using the example of fairy-tale characters, she shows children what “good” is and what “bad” is. Talks about how Good fights Evil.
One such story is told in the children's fairy tale “The Fox and the Blackbird.” The main characters of this story are the blackbird and the fox.
There lived a blackbird bird in the forest. She made a nest in a tree, laid eggs and began to hatch them. At the right moment, the chicks hatched from the eggs - small blackbirds. Unfortunately, a cunning and treacherous fox got wind of this. She ran to the tree where the blackbird settled with his family and, well, let’s beat the tree with its tail.
Frightened by this behavior of the fox, the blackbird looked out of the nest. And under the tree stands a red-haired rogue and threatens the blackbird. They say she will knock down a tree with her tail and eat a blackbird and its children. Then the blackbird prayed that the fox would take pity on him and the little ones. He promised the cheat that he would feed her honey and pies.
And that’s all the fox needed. She agreed to leave the blackbird and his family alone if he kept his promise. A blackbird flew towards a large country road. The fox ran after him. At that time, a grandmother and her granddaughter were walking along the road. And they carried a basket of pies and a jug of honey.
The blackbird began to distract the grandmother and granddaughter. Meanwhile, the fox ate too much honey and pies. The thrush calmed down, thinking that he had gotten rid of the fox. But that was not the case. Again the redhead came to the tree and began to hit it with her tail. This time she demanded that the blackbird give her something to drink, because after a large meal she was very thirsty.
And again the blackbird flew towards the main road. And the fox ran after him. The blackbird saw a man carrying a barrel of beer and began to tease him. The man swung an ax at the blackbird and damaged the barrel. The intoxicating drink flowed in a stream. The fox drank a lot and became so drunk on beer that she began to sing songs.
The thrush had calmed down. But the fox is right there again. Again threatens the blackbird and its chicks. It was not enough for her that she was fed and watered. She wanted to have fun. There is nothing to do. The blackbird, saving its chicks, had to satisfy this wish of the fox.
The thrush flew to his little ones, but before he even had time to feed them, the fox found himself under the tree again. And again the story with threats repeated itself. This time the fox wished to be frightened. The thrush had to satisfy this desire of the fox as well.
The blackbird told the fox to close her eyes. And he himself brought her to the hunters, where there was a pack of hunting dogs. Here the fox got seriously scared and forcibly ran away with its legs. Hiding in a hole, the fox decided to find out what was stopping her from running away from the dogs. Deciding that her own tail was always bothering her, she put it out of the hole.
The dogs grabbed the fox by the tail and pulled him out of the hole. This is how the cunning red-haired cheat was punished for her meanness and insatiability.

The thrush made a nest in a tree, laid eggs and hatched young. The fox found out about this. She came running and knocked her tail on the tree.
The blackbird looked out of the nest, and the fox said to him:
The blackbird got scared and began to beg, the fox began to beg:
Mother Fox, don’t cut down the tree, don’t destroy my children! I'll feed you pies and honey.
Well, if you feed me pies and honey, I won’t cut down a tree!
So come with me to the high road.
And the fox and the blackbird set off on the high road: the blackbird flies, the fox runs after them.
The blackbird saw an old woman and her granddaughter coming, carrying a basket of pies and a jug of honey.
The fox hid, and the blackbird sat down on the road and ran, as if it could not fly: it would take off from the ground and land, it would fly and land.
The granddaughter says to the grandmother:
Let's catch this bird!
Where can we catch you and me?
We'll catch it somehow. Apparently her wing is damaged. A very beautiful bird!
The old woman and her granddaughter put the basket and jug on the ground and ran after the blackbird.
The thrush took them away from the pies and honey. But the fox didn’t yawn: she ate plenty of pies and honey and hid it in storage.
The blackbird took off and flew away to its nest.
And the fox is right there - tap-tap with his tail on the tree:
I will cut down the tree with my tail, I will eat you, blackbird, and your children!
The blackbird leaned out of the nest and, well, begged the fox, well, begged the fox.
Mother Fox, don’t cut down the tree, don’t destroy my children! I'll give you beer.
Well, let's go quickly. I'm full of fat and sweets and I'm thirsty!
The blackbird flew onto the road again, and the fox ran after it.
Drozd sees a man coming, carrying a barrel of beer. Drozd comes to him: he will sit on a horse, then on a barrel. He made the man so angry that he wanted to kill him. A blackbird sat on a nail, and the man struck with an ax and knocked the nail out of the barrel. He himself ran to catch up with the blackbird.
And beer pours from a barrel onto the road. The fox got as drunk as she wanted, went and sang songs.
The blackbird flew away to its nest. The fox is right there again - tap-tap with his tail on the tree:
Fed!
Did you get me drunk?
Got me drunk!
Now make me laugh, otherwise I’ll cut down the tree with my tail, eat you, blackbird, and eat your children!
The blackbird led the fox to the village. He sees an old woman milking a cow, and next to him an old man is weaving bast shoes. Drozd sat on the old woman's shoulder. The old man says:
Old woman, don't move, I'll kill the blackbird! - And he hit the old woman on the shoulder, but missed the blackbird.
The old woman fell and knocked over the milk pan.
The old woman jumped up and started scolding the old man.
The fox laughed for a long time at the stupid old man.
The blackbird flew away to its nest. Before I had time to feed the children, the fox again hit the tree with its tail: knock-knock-knock!
Thrush, and thrush, have you fed me?
Fed!
Did you get me drunk?
Got me drunk!
Did you make me laugh?
Made me laugh!
Now scare me!
The blackbird got angry and said:
Close your eyes, run after me!
A blackbird flew, flies and screams, and the fox runs after it - does not open its eyes.
The blackbird led the fox straight to the hunters.
Well, now, fox, get scared!
The fox opened her eyes, saw the dogs - and ran away. And the dogs follow her. I barely made it to my hole.
She climbed into the hole, caught her breath a little and began to ask:
Little eyes, little eyes, what were you doing?
We made sure that the dogs didn’t eat the fox.
Ears, ears, what were you doing?
We listened so that the dogs would not eat the fox.
Legs, legs, what were you doing?
We ran so that the dogs wouldn’t catch the little fox.
And you, tail, what did you do?
I, the boaster, hit stumps, bushes, logs and prevented you from running.
The fox got angry at the tail and stuck it out of the hole:
Here you dogs, eat my tail!
The dogs grabbed the fox by the tail and pulled it out of the hole.
The Fox and Kotofey Ivanovich - a fairy tale about a smart cat who was kicked out of the house. However, he was not at a loss, called himself the head of the forest, settled with the Fox and made all the forest inhabitants fear him. (Recorded in the village of Klimovo, Urensky district, Gorky region from M.A. Skazkin)
Fox and Kotofey Ivanovich read
Once upon a time there lived an old man and an old woman. They lived poorly. They didn’t have any livestock - only one cat. He lived with the old people for a long time, and became so old that he stopped catching mice.
The old woman began to take offense at the cat and said:
- Since he doesn’t catch mice, we don’t need him!
And she forced the old man to put the cat in a bag, take it further into the forest and shake it out there.
And so the old man went into the forest, threw out the cat, went back home, but the cat remained in the forest. The cat gets hungry, he sees that things are bad, he needs to get his own food. He began to look for prey to have lunch. And then I saw a big stump. He sensed that there were a lot of mice under the stump, hid near the hole and began to intercept the mice. There turned out to be so many of them there that he ate well, saved some for dinner, and moved on.
He walked and walked and a fox ran towards him. It was the first time she had to see a cat. She was surprised:
- Fu-fu! What is it? I have never seen such animals. Who will you be?
And the cat answers:
- I was sent here by the boss. Himself from the Siberian forests. And my name is Kotofey Ivanovich.
“Oh,” says the fox, “Kotofey Ivanovich?” I’ve never even heard that we have such a boss in our forest! Let's go eat with me.
And she took him to her house.
It turned out that the fox had a lot of chicken and all kinds of meat. She treated Kotofey Ivanovich to great pleasure. She treated me, and then said:
- Why are you, Kotofey Ivanovich, alone? You have nowhere to go, or what? Let's live together, stay with me.
And so they began to live together, the cat and the fox. The fox continually drags the meat and feeds Kotofey Ivanovich. Either a duck, then a goose, or a chicken somewhere. The sweet life has come for Kotofey Ivanovich.
And then one day the fox went hunting and caught a duck on the lake. To celebrate, she carried this duck to Kotofey Ivanovich. And when she ran, she met a wolf along the way.
And he says:
And the fox says:
- No, I won’t give it up!
- If you don’t give it back, I’ll take it away by force!
And the fox says:
- And I’ll tell Kotofey Ivanovich if you take it away!
“What kind of Kotofey Ivanovich is this?” asks the wolf.
And the fox answers him:
- Haven’t you heard and seen that we have a boss? He was sent for us animals from the Siberian forests, so that we would have order. And I, the fox, am Kotofey Ivanovich’s wife now!
The wolf answers:
- Oh, little fox, I haven’t heard of that, I’m sorry!
And he went away, slurping unsalted.
The fox ran even faster. And suddenly she meets a bear.
And he says:
- Stop, fox! Give me the duck!
- No, I won’t give it up!
- If you don’t give it back, I’ll take it away by force!
- If you take it away by force, I’ll tell Kotofey Ivanovich!
- What does it mean? Who is Kotofey Ivanovich?
- Haven’t you heard that the boss Kotofey Ivanovich was sent to us from the Siberian forests so that we would have order!
- Oh, little fox, I haven’t heard that!
- And my Kotofey Ivanovich is very angry. God forbid you annoy him! You better come with the wolf and bow to him, bring gifts. Bring him a bull, and let the wolf bring him a ram. But when you bring it, move away yourself, otherwise Kotofey Ivanovich will be very angry!
And the fox scared the bear so much that he obliged to bring gifts; and went away from the little fox, slurping unsalted. And the fox ran to Kotofey Ivanovich. She came running and began to treat him to duck. She treats her and says:
- Now the wolf and the bear just wanted to take this duck away from me. But I didn’t give it to them and even asked them for a gift for you. And they promised to give a gift: the bear - a bull, and the wolf - a ram.
Kotofey Ivanovich was pleased with the little fox: he saw that it was good to live with her, satisfyingly, freely. And he became even more affectionate with her.
And the bear and the wolf got together and decided to save gifts so that they could go to the boss. The bear caught the bull, and the wolf caught the ram. And they carried them to the fox.
They walked and walked, but they didn’t know the fox’s house. And they stopped, laid down their burden and began to hold council. Bear says:
- Well, Levon Ivanovich, run and find where the fox lives.
And the wolf says:
- No, Mikhailo Ivanovich, I don’t dare, I’m afraid of the boss. You are stronger than me, go yourself.
But the bear said:
- No, I won’t go!
And then a hare ran into their argument. He runs past them, and the bear roars:
- Stop, oblique!
The hare got scared and stopped. The bear asks him:
- Kosoy, do you know where the fox lives?
- I know, Mikhailo Ivanovich!
- Well, run to her and say: Mikhailo Ivanovich and Levon Ivanovich brought gifts and are waiting for you to accept them.
The hare ran at full speed. He runs up to the fox’s hut and knocks on the window:
- Mikhailo Ivanovich and Levon Ivanovich brought you gifts. They are waiting for you to accept them.
The Fox and Kotofey Ivanovich immediately began to get ready to go out.
And the bear says to the wolf:
- Levon Ivanovich, I’ll climb a tree. I'm afraid of the new boss!
“Mikhailo Ivanovich, where should I go?” says the wolf. “I don’t know how to climb trees.” Bury me please!
The wolf climbed into the hole, the bear covered him with brushwood, and he climbed up the tree.
And when he climbed a tall tree, he saw a fox with a cat. He was surprised that the boss was much shorter than the fox, and said to Levon Ivanovich from the tree:
- Eh, Levon Ivanovich, what a little boss!
And the cat smelled fresh meat, ran up to the bull and started fighting him. And he himself shouts:
- Meow, meow, meow!
And the bear heard:
- Little, little, little!
And he says to himself:
- Small, but gluttonous!
The wolf is also interested in looking at the boss from the pit, but he can’t see anything. He began to stick his muzzle out from under the brushwood, and the cat heard something moving and thought - a mouse! He threw the meat, jumped up to the wolf in three leaps and grabbed him by the muzzle with his claws. The wolf howled in pain, jumped up and ran! And the cat himself was more frightened than the wolf: he had never seen such an animal in his life! He snorted and jumped up onto the tree, and onto the same one on which the bear was sitting. Then the bear got scared and thought:
- Ay, ay! He tore Levon Ivanovich apart, you know, now he’s getting to me!
Yes, from the tree straight to the ground.
And the cat is sitting on a tree clinging - he doesn’t know what to do!
The bear jumped out of the tree and drove through the forest.
They run with Levon Ivanovich, and the fox shouts after them:
- He’ll ask you! He'll ask you!
He and Kotofey Ivanovich never saw either a bear or a wolf again. They dragged the meat home and began to live happily ever after.
And they still live, they say.
