"Sparrow"
6" x 6," Oil on Wood

 I think it's a sparrow. I once raised a sparrow from babyhood when I was young. We slowly got her used to being outside . I remember teaching her how to fly. There was an interim during the summer when she lived outside, but every morning she would come to my window and chirp until I would wake up, open the window and let her inside. I would then go down to the kitchen and feed her.

Beauty this! :) Sweet story, what a nice memory. About two years ago, we had some sort of tiny Bush Tits, or something, come to our back windows and hang on the edge of the glass frame. Sometimes they would tap, but mostly just hang out. For weeks they did this. We had ducks that adopted our back yard that year as well. They would lay in the grass.
Happy last week of the challenge Sharon ;)
