The film tells us how little and brave eagle-owl understood that he was needed not only at night… Old eagle-owl says to his grandson: “Don’t go out during the day, you will get lost”. But Philya didn’t listen to his grandfather’s advice and went out of the thicket in the morning and saw the sunrise and dew on the flowers. Then he made friends with little chicken Gosha and helped his father – Cock – to drive mice from battery farm.
