"Isn't that rather nasty?" said Tommy Smith. "You had better ask _them_ about _that_," said the mother woodpigeon. "_They_ will tell you whether it is nasty or not." "_They_ think it _nice_," said the father woodpigeon.

id the mother woodpigeon. “He does that too. Oh, he _is_ so good!” “Nonsense!” said the father woodpigeon. “It is what all birds ought to do-oo-oo-oo.” “Yes; but it isn’t what they all do do-oo-oo-oo,” said the mother woodpigeon. “More shame for those who do not,” said the father woodpigeon; “but I hope there are not many.” And then they both waited for Tommy Smith to ask them another question. “Please, Mrs. Woodpigeon,” said Tommy Smith, “what do you feed your young ones with?” “We feed them with whatever we eat ourselves,” said the mother woodpigeon, “and we always swallow it first, to be sure that it is quite good.” This surprised Tommy Smith very much indeed, for it seemed to him almost as wonderful as eating stones. “Oh! but if you swallow the food yourselves,” he said, “how can your young ones have it?” “They don’t have it till we bring it up again,” said the father woodpigeon. “They put their beaks inside ours, and then it comes up into our mouths all ready for them to swallow.” URNS YOU WOULD NOT FIND MANY COCKS WHO WOULD DO THAT I THINK NO OR HELP TO HATCH THE EGGS SAID THE MOTHER WOOD PIGEON HE DOES THAT TOO OH HE IS SO GOOD NONSENSE SAID THE FATHER WOODPIGEON IT IS WHAT ALL BIRDS OUGHT TO DO YES BUT IT ISN'T WHAT THEY ALL DO SAID THE MOTHER WOOD PIGEON MORE SHAME FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT SAID THE FATHER WOODPIGEON BUT I HOPE THERE ARE NOT MANY AND THEY BOTH WAITED FOR TOMMY SMITH TO ASK THEM ANOTHER QUESTION PLEASE MISSUS WOODPIGEON SAID TOMMY SMITH WHAT DO YOU FEED YOUR YOUNG ONES WITH WE FEED THEM WITH WHATEVER WE EAT OURSELVES SAID THE MOTHER WOODPIGEON AND WE ALWAYS SWALLOW IT FIRST TO BE SURE THAT IT IS QUITE GOOD THIS SURPRISED TOMMY SMITH VERY MUCH INDEED FOR IT SEEMED TO HIM ALMOST AS WONDERFUL AS EATING STONES OH BUT YOU SWALLOW THE FOOD YOURSELF HE SAID HOW CAN YOUR YOUNG ONES HAVE IT THEY DON'T HAVE IT TILL WE BRING IT UP AGAIN SAID THE FATHER WOODPIGEON THEY PUT THEIR BEAKS INSIDE OURS AND THEN IT COMES INTO OUR MOUTHS ALL READY FOR THEM TO SWALLOW
