ROBIN REDBREAST, 
refuge to the habitations of man for shelter 
and food. It is very amusing to see the 
half trusting, half fearful look with which 
it hops to the window-sill for the first 
time. After a while, it becomes bold, and 
taps at the window, if the expected crumbs 
are not thrown out. Before very long, it 
ventures to enter the room, hops about on 
the table, and quite seems to consider as 
a right what was first merely a favor. 
When once established, it is very jealous, 
and will not suffer a friend to be partaker 
of the same comforts but attacks him 
with great fury.
