Old Redtail hissed sharply, and the feathers on the top of his head stood up in a way they do when he is angry. And he was angry--very angry. Shadow the Weasel stopped short.

He was more angry than frightened, for his sharp eyes had spied a little hollow in a branch of the chestnut-tree, and he knew that once inside of that, he would have nothing to fear. But he was angry clear through to think that he should be cheated out of that dinner he had been so sure of only a few minutes before.
