their eyes because they are afraid to lose  sight of him at one moment the Fox acts like

115320
7470
02:02
he will climb the tree at another he falls over  and lies down as if he is dead and then he gets

02:11
up and jumps around again with his back in the  air the whole time the bird's heads are full of

02:20
fear at the performance they become dazed as they  watch him after a time the birds become so afraid  
17

that when the Fox begins his performance once more  they lose control and fall out of the tree one by  
18
