I could hear the little bird chirping in the backyard, but he wasn’t in the same location. Earlier in the morning I saw mommy feeding him in the spot he was yesterday, so I was surprised he’d moved.

In the afternoon, when I went looking, I heard mommy in the tree and heard baby squeaking with its distinctive voice, but didn’t see it. I thought it had flown up into the tree also, but nope. Still on the ground.

I know one day very soon, it’ll be gone. I’m wondering now how many I missed as we have a tree fully of these little birds.
