(You see he was not at all the same Tommy Smith now that he used to be, and he didn't go birds' nesting any more.) The squirrel looked just a little bit ashamed. "I wouldn't, you know," he said, "if they didn't make their nests in the trees." "Of course they make their nests in the trees!" said Tommy Smith indignantly.

In the spring and summer I have something else to think about.

They are both very nice, though I like nuts better still. But, you see, buds and birds’ eggs don’t keep, and so”— “Oh but, Mr. Squirrel,” cried Tommy Smith, “you surely don’t eat the eggs of the poor birds! Oh, I hope you don’t!” SAID THE SQUIRREL I DO YOU SEE HE WENT ON I ONLY BEGIN HIDING THINGS AWAY TOWARDS THE END OF AUTUMN SO THERE ISN'T SO VERY MUCH TIME BUT YOU HAVE THE REST OF THE YEAR TO DO IT IN TOO SAID TOMMY SMITH OH NO SAID THE SQUIRREL THAT'S QUITE A MISTAKE IN THE SPRING AND SUMMER I HAVE SOMETHING ELSE TO THINK ABOUT BESIDES THERE IS NOTHING WORTH HIDING AWAY THEN NO ACORNS OR BEECHNUTS OR FILBERTS AND OF COURSE ONE WANTS TO HAVE SOMETHING REALLY NICE TO EAT WHEN ONE WAKES UP IN THE WINTER BUT IN THE AUTUMN ALL THOSE THINGS ARE RIPE THE AUTUMN IS A GREAT EATING TIME THAT IS THE TIME OF YEAR THAT I LIKE BEST OF ALL WHAT BETTER THAN THE SPRING OR THE SUMMER SAID TOMMY SMITH WELL IN THE SPRING THERE ARE BUDS ON THE TREES THE SQUIRRE REFLECTED AND THE BIRDS NESTS HAVE GOT EGGS INSIDE THEM THEY ARE BOTH VERY NICE THOUGH I LIKE NUTS BETTER STILL BUT YOU SEE BUDS AND BIRDS EGGS DON'T KEEP AND SO OH BUT MISTER SQUIRREL CRIED TOMMY SMITH YOU SURELY DON'T EAT THE EGGS OF THE POOR BIRDS OH I HOPE YOU DON'T
