The pitcher contained some water, but its height and narrow neck made it challenging for the crow to access and drink from it.
The sentence "the pitcher had a little water in it, but the pitcher was high and had a narrow neck" means that while there was some water available for the crow to drink, it was difficult for him to access it. The height of the pitcher and its narrow neck made it impossible for the crow to reach the water directly with his beak, which presented a challenge for him in satisfying his thirst.
