Blacky flew over to a tree some distance away and alighted in thetop of it to watch the queer performance. You know Blacky has somewhatkeen eyes and he can see a long distance. For a while the mancontinued to scatter corn and Blacky continued to wonder what he wasdoing it for. At last the man went away in a boat. Blacky watchedhim until he was out of sight. Then he spread his wings and sluggishlyflew back and forth just far above the rushes and wild rice, at theplace where the man had been scattering the corn. He could see someof the yellow grains on the bottom. Presently he saw somethingelse. "Ha!" exclaimed Blacky.
