Feeding Chickadees

 



A whirr of wings –

a gentle touch

of delicate feet

on my outstretched hand.


I am filled with wonder

by the intimacy and privilege

these tiny, winged beings

bestow.

  1. I love chickadee encounters. Did you ever see my very old blogs with our chickadee encounters one winter?

    1. Hi Anvilcloud, I think I did and may have left a comment (or intended to). Could you provide a link for me?

  2. A comment from messymimi didn't come through for some reason. She wrote: They only come to those they trust, and that takes a lot of time." Thank you.
