Lady Bird

Hello readers, thanks to all of you for your sweet comments. It is always nice to hear from you.

I have been busy with homekeeping & homeschooling, but wanted to share about my time with Lady Bird today. For those that our new to the story of our bird, Lady Bird is an English Sparrow that fell out of her nest and my son brought her home. (Yes, we have a thriving ministry of taking in animals of unfortunate circumstances.) Anyway, I have been putting Lady Bird's cage outside in the afternoon & evening hours. Sometimes I leave the cage door open so she can fly off if she wants. Today, she was content to sit in her cage even though the door was open, so I went out and closed it. A little bit later the sparrows came to our yard. There were baby birds with the parents and two of them landed on Lady Bird's cage. They were talking to her and looking at her. After that I opened her cage door and she flew to me and wanted something to eat. So I carried her inside and gave her some bugs then took her back outside. She saw the birds out there again so she flew over to them. She sat with them for a bit and then she came flying back to me without me even calling her. She was all excited and chirping as if she was telling me all about it. It was SO cute! One day she will want to fly away with them, I think that will be the best for her. When she does I will miss her, but for now she is happy to live with us.
