The objective of the We Write is to pick a partner, and write a freewrite together. @svashta was my partner. We opened a Google Doc, and created this cute little story. We hope you like it.
It was one of those lazy Saturday mornings, one of those when I sleep in.
And I heard a strange noise from outside my bedroom window; an eerie and piercing noise; one I had never heard before in my life.
I rubbed my eyes and swiftly got up, put on my pants and shirt I had lying next to me still from last night and looked outside, moving the curtains.
I witnessed the source of the disturbance. It was a baby sparrow that had fallen out of its nest, below the old Oak tree.
”The poor thing,” I thought to myself, looked around to find a warm and cozy piece of clothing to wrap it in and hurried outside; it was cold outside, after all.
The baby was shouting and chirping for its mother, who was watching from the branch above. I wasn’t sure if the mother would attack me if I touched its offspring.
I was confused at first why the mother didn’t fly down to the little baby sparrow on its own. Did it throw its offspring out of its nest?
But when I got closer, the mama bird seemed to be pleading for my help. I gently wrapped the baby in the old tee-shirt and lifted it to its nest.
The two birds, however, were still chirping loudly - the baby sparrow had hurt its wing badly and needed help. There was no way its mother could tend that wound.
I grabbed the whole nest; mother bird and all and jumped into my car. The Vet said the little birds would recover fine, and they would be put back into the wild.
Great fun!!!
