 small insects that it may be Jenny was a little

"I don't see what they have to stop here for," 

 scolded Jenny. "They could just as well go 

 somewhere else where they would not be taking 

 the food out of the mouths of honest folks who 

 are here to stay all summer. Did you ever in 

 your life see such uneasy people? They don't 

 keep still an instant. It positively makes me 

 tired just to watch them."

 Wren herself is a very restless and uneasy person. 

 As for Peter, he was thoroughly enjoying this 

 visit of the Warblers, despite the fact that he was 

 having no end of trouble trying to tell who was 

 who. Suddenly one darted down and snapped up 

 a fly almost under Peter's very nose and was back 

 up in a tree before Peter could get his breath. 

 "It's Zee Zee the Redstart !" cried Peter joyously. 

 "I would know Zee Zee anywhere. Do you know 

 who he reminds me of, Jenny Wren?" 



"\Yho?" demanded Jenny.
