Synopsis

Heckle and Jeckle see a seemingly helpless baby bird (who keeps saying he is "only three years old") in danger as a cat is trying to capture it. The magpies play their usual tricks on the cat to keep him from getting the baby bird. When the cat starts shooting at the birds, the baby bird gets angry, marches straight towards the cat and gives him a sound thrashing, much to the amazement of Heckle and Jeckle.
