'' cried Happy Jack impatiently . `` After that I flew back to the big maple tree close by the house , '' continued Tommy . `` You know Farmer Brown 's boy has kept a piece of suet tied in that tree all winter for me . I was hungry , and I thought I would get a bite to eat , but there was n't any suet there . That pig of a Sammy Jay had managed to get it untied and had carried it all away . Of course that made me angry , and twice as hungry as before . I was trying to make up my mind what to do next when I happened to look over on the window sill , and what do you think I saw there ?

They tasted so good that I almost forgot about Farmer Brown 's boy , when I just happened to look in the window .
