"A Stork's Journey" tells the story of a sparrow, Richard, who grows up with a stork family convinced he is a stork himself. When the migratory birds leave to spend the winter in Africa, Richard, wanting to join them and prove he is one of them, hitchhikes through Europe by any means available, joined in his travels by an eccentric owl with an imaginary friend and a narcissistic, disco-singing parakeet.
