Origin[]
The bird sings a song which sounds like, "Who's-been digging-up MY-nuts?" That is simply, "its natural song, and it meant nothing at all." Other squirrels, however, believe that the bird is calling Timmy Tiptoes a thief who has stolen their nuts. Chippy Hackee and his wife are seen in the last illustration trying to drive the little bird away with their tree-leaf umbrella.
