In the next moment
I’ll scoop you up in my hands
in one breath - you’ll fly
* On the morning we left Colorado Springs, I went out to the car to load my suitcase and found this baby bird on the ground. I sat on the curb with my camera for a few photos, then set my camera down. I scooped her up and she nested in my hands for a few seconds. I think we were both surprised when she took a short flight into a nearby tree. I’ll never forget that encounter.
