A sentinel crow can bal^nrtr himself on the swaying ?>p Mid by, different inflections given ms "caws,." impart a world of infortna wion to the flock pulling up corn in a nearby field. IIo can tosk out a lazy, ' contented k-ind of a "caw_" and not a crow raises its head, for.lt knows that everything Ik lovely and there is noth ing to worry .about. Hut a single "caw" spoken with a 'crk, meanu "Be careful, and ready to fly." A sharp chopped off "caw" sends every bird high in the air and clangihg away to the safety of the pines. If the watcher on the tree-top rat tled off a regufar fuslidac of "Oa-Ca Oa-Ca-Ca-Oa's," each crow, would look out for number one, ?nd after rising to a height that would put them above a possible gun shot, scatter and beat their retreat in ^jfferent directions; all the while repeating the same warning cry for the benefit of others. If a lone crow in the course of his foraging through the woods- should happen to glimpse th# dusky red of a fox blinking through the bushes, he throws out his wireless call iir ,%he shape of another "Caw" with an other inflection, And all crows in hear ing, know exactly what it means, and come flocking to the fun, and that fox wHl see no peace until he takes refuge in Ms den.
