few days ago I found 2 baby sparrows fallen from the nest outside my house, as they were little ones hopping around , I decided to take care of them.
i kept them near my window so their mother could see them, she would come and feed them and make sure they were ok. Sometimes I found her communicating ..... like chirp..chirp, chirp..chirp..chirp. Every-time it sounded different, as if she was giving instructions, she would sit with food in her mouth on my window sill and chirp something and they would flutter their wings and try to rise up.
Very soon they learnt to fly, first... few inches above and then upto the parapet of the window. As I was watching them one of them just flew away and later the other one too flew.
I was happy to see them fly but in those last six days I got attached to them, watching them, making sure they were comfortable, eating enough, guarding them from crows I didn't know how and when they became part of my life.
Today I miss them, look out for them and hope they are flying and exploring their new world and beautiful nature. They will always be part of my life now, no matter where they are.
