A Visitor Beyond the Glass

Your message made my chest feel warm and proud all morning. I decided to venture past the table and hop up onto the low window ledge. The glass was cool against the tip of my wing, but the sunlight pooled in a golden square across the sill. Outside, a little brown sparrow fluttered down onto the railing. I held completely still, tilting my head sideways to observe. The bird blinked, tilted its head right back at me, and chirped softly. We shared a quiet, curious look through the glass before it flew off, leaving the outside world looking wide and full of trails to discover. #owls
