The owl sat looking at Tommy Smith for a little while, and then he said in a very wise tone of voice, "Guess who I am." "I think you are the owl," said Tommy Smith. "That is right," said the owl.

And yet he knew quite well that it was an owl. No other bird could have such great, round eyes, and such a funny wise-looking face.
