What a Stunner

When a tiny ball of feathers at full speed tries to fly through what it thought was an open space, it’s easy to see which is going to come off second best. Cute little bird was sitting on the office door mat, looking slightly drunk, swaying a little from side to side, beak open, gasping for breath. He’d come a cropper hitting the window, had no intention of even attempting to get out of my way. Thought I’d leave him alone rather than intervene and frighten him even more, and after about fifteen minutes I was relieved to find he'd come to his senses, regained his equilibrium and managed to flit off as if nothing had happened. Wonder what bedtime stories he'll be sharing in the nest tonight.
