Do come here, mother, said Eddie, carefully tip-toeing from the window, and beckoning with his hand. Here is something I want to show you. Come carefully, or I am afraid you will frighten it.
Mrs. Dudley laid aside her book, and stepped cautiously forward, Eddie leading the way back to the window. What is it? she inquired.
It is a bird with straw in its mouth, and I do believe it is going to build a nest.
