I think I would love to have a house sparrow as a pet but I could never bear to put one in a cage (nor any bird, actually) and so if one chose to live with me, I would feel so blessed. <br />Wow.

You are one of them. My mother was one of them. If you find the time, I recommend "Birds & People" an amazing book by Mark Cocker. This is my favourite quote from it:<br /><br />"It is not just that we see birds as little versions of ourselves. It is also that, at the same time, they stand outside any moral process. They are utterly indifferent. This absolute oblivion on their part, this lack of sharing, is powerful." <br /><br />Good bye little Chip, you had a good life.<br />Sabinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09015827501648296977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3830720322970025712.post-58988640977582594182017-02-15T12:29:30.411-05:002017-02-15T12:29:30.411-05:00Sweet...and sad.....that photo is adorable.......I...Sweet...and sad.....that photo is adorable.......If you look down my sidebar you will see Red the miracle quail who albert saved from the rubbish bin......

I'm really really soft when it comes to animals, while I have been called cold-blooded in connection with humans more than once.<br />It is fantastic that you managed to raise Chip from when she didn't even have feathers yet, and that she lived so long! It is probably nearly impossible for house sparrows to get that old in the wild.<br />Yes, now I know how your blog got its name.
