As if he 'd dislocate his jaw , His relatives all hasten where He waits them with a crafty air . They know that there is mischief afoot , and the Crow family is always ready for mischief . So on this particular morning when they heard Blacky cawing at the top of his lungs from the tallest pine-tree in the Green Forest , they hastened over there as fast as they could fly , calling to each other excitedly and sure that they were going to have a good time of some kind . Blacky chuckled as he saw them coming . `` Come on ! Come on ! Caw , caw , caw ! Hurry up and flap your wings faster . I know where Hooty the Owl is , and we 'll have no end of fun with him , '' he cried . `` Caw , caw , caw , caw , caw , caw ! '' shouted all his relatives in great glee . `` Where is he ? Lead us to him . We 'll drive him out of the Green Forest ! '' So Blacky led the way over to the most lonesome corner of the Green Forest , straight to the tree in which Hooty the Owl was comfortably sleeping . Blacky had taken pains to slip over early that morning and make sure just where he was . He had discovered Hooty fast asleep , and he knew that he would remain right where he was until dark . You know Hooty 's eyes are not meant for much use in bright light , and the brighter the light , the more uncomfortable his eyes feel . Blacky knows this , too , and he had chosen the very brightest part of the morning to call his relatives over to torment poor Hooty . Jolly , round , bright Mr. Sun was shining his very brightest , and the white snow on the ground made it seem brighter still .
Even Blacky had to blink , and he knew that poor XXXXX would find it harder still .
