Meanwhile also came the chickadees in flocks, which, picking up the crumbs the squirrels had dropped, flew to the nearest twig and, placing them under their claws, hammered away at them with their little bills, as if it were an insect in the bark, till they were sufficiently reduced for their slender throats.
Intussen het ook gekom het om die chickadees in swerms, wat optel van die krummels die eekhorings gedaal het, gevlieg na die naaste takkie, en plaas dit onder hul kloue gehamer weg by hulle met hulle klein wetsontwerpe, asof dit ́n insek in die bas, totdat hulle genoeg verminder vir hul slanke keel.QED QED
