Trick or Tweet

A trick or treater came to the door today asking for a hand out. This is a migrating White Throated Sparrow hoping to make his way southward.

Unfortunatly this guy was not cautious and was caught and eaten by a giant monkey. Let that be a lesson to the rest of you little sparrows as you find your way home this late October.

    Marnie,
    The giant monkey is in reference to Joe, who was holding the bird, whose size reminded me of KING KONG holding Fay Ray in his monstrous grip!

    Namaki,
    I saw it exactly the same way! It's like he's clothed.

    Beth,
    Please draw away, I look forward to seeing it! I hope folk will use these images for screen savers, most of them are cropped for wide screen monitors.
