A thirsty crow found a pitcher with a little water left in it, but the water was too far down for the crow to reach. The crow dropped pebbles into the pitcher one by one, causing the water level to rise slowly until the crow was finally able to drink and save its life. The moral is that little by little, small continuous efforts can achieve significant results.

4. The Crow and the Pitcher
A Crow, half-dead with thirst, came upon a Pitcher which had once been full
of water; but when the Crow put its beak into the mouth of the Pitcher he
found that only very little water was left in it, and that he could not reach
far enough down to get at it. He tried, and he tried, but at last had to give
up in despair. Then a thought came to him, and he took a pebble and
dropped it into the Pitcher. Then he took another pebble and dropped it
into the Pitcher. Then he took another pebble and dropped that into the
Pitcher. Then he took another pebble and dropped that into
the Pitcher. Then he took another pebble and dropped that into the Pitcher.
Then he took another pebble and dropped that into the Pitcher. At last, at
last, he saw the water mount up near him, and after casting in a few more
pebbles he was able to
quench his thirst and save his life.
