They were all still wondering what to do next， when Lucy said， “Look！ There‘s a robin， with such a red breast. It’s thefirst bird I‘ve seen here. I say！ .I wonder can birds talk in Narnia？ It almost looks as if it wanted to say something to us.” Then she turned to the Robin and said， “Please， can you tell us where Tumnus the Faun has been taken to？” As she said this she took a step towards the bird. It at once flew away but only as far as to the next tree. There it perched and looked at them very hard as if it understood all they had been saying. Almost without noticing that they had done so， the four children went a step or two nearer to it. At this the Robin flew away again to the next tree and once more looked at them very hard. （You couldn’t have found a robin with a redder chest or a brighter eye.）“Do you know，” said Lucy， “I really believe he means us to follow him.”
“I‘ve an idea he does，” said Susan. “What do you think， Peter？”
“Well， we might as well try it，” answered Peter.
