My favorite animal is the swallow. Swallows like to rest on branches, and a pair of sharp claws hold them tightly. Its color is very special, its head is black, like wearing a black hat, and it has a pair of black round eyes. It has a small, pointed black mouth with a circle of red feathers around it. Around the neck is a circle of black feathers, like wearing a black bow tie. Its belly is white, like wearing a white shirt, its back and wings are black, like wearing a tuxedo, like a conductor! Swallow's handsome wings are like two open fans when they are opened. It is said that the slightly pointed parts of the wings can reduce air resistance and make swallows fly faster. The swallow's tail is like an open pair of scissors when flying, which is very beautiful. Swallows are still experts in nesting. Every spring, swallows fly back from the south and nest under other people's eaves. It kept flying around, grabbing branches and straws, then grabbing the mud paste on the straws by the river, sipping it with its small mouth, and then twittering away. In this way, they tirelessly shuttled back and forth in the air, and in a few days, a solid house was built, like a capable architect.

Swallows are good friends of human beings. It likes to catch pests, and almost all of them feed on insects. A swallow can help mankind eliminate thousands of pests in a year. People like it very much and welcome it. She is also a competent mother, always taking pains to catch insects for her children and feed them lovingly.

Swallows are so hardworking and caring that we should learn from their excellent character.
