Gone to the birds...

"I once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment, while I was hoeing in a village garden, and I felt that I was more distinguished by that circumstance that I should have been by any epaulet I could have worn." ~Henry David Thoreau

That first fellow doesn't look too happy at all, now does he? Excellent photos and such a remarkable quote. :) I'm so happy that you share a deep love of nature and all creatures - great and small. :) Theresa
