This is a glimpse into a bond I never expected to find.
My Baby Starling
by lisalc
I saw, then captured a flightless baby bird running into traffic. Even though I'm allergic to birds, I couldn't leave her. She would have died. Two home meals and she imprinted on me.
My starling speaks my words and comes when called.
She is the teacher. I am the song.
