NATURE DIARY #5

6.11.2011 

"Let me feed you!"
     
     Recently I've been seeing the mother bird feed her babies.  When the mother comes, those little creatures will start making a huge ruckus and chirp like mad.  Then I see the mother jump to the edge of the nest and lean over.  Then two tiny gray beaks will protrude from the nest and open their mouths.  The mother then "feeds" them.  

        When she leaves, her offspring are once more silent.

What a heartening scene you have noticed and describe. Just like any mother would happily and unselfishly do to her little birdie and chicks. I really enjoy the soft, warm, and yet at the same time assertive voice in your writing.
