Two tall trees, a birch, and beech are growing in the woods.
A small tree begins to grow between them, and the beech says to the birch,
‘Is that a son of a beech or a son of a birch?’
The birch says he cannot tell, but just then a woodpecker lands on the sapling.
The birch 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 and replies,
‘It is neither a son of a beech nor a son of a birch. It is, however, the best piece of ash I have ever poked my p*cker into.
