That's a very interesting question! In 1961, when I was 7-years-old, I found a very young bird (it still didn't have any proper feathers) that was 'squeaking' underneath its nest. I discovered that the bird's nest was very badly damaged, and obviously abandoned. I carefully took hold of the young bird, and took it home, and looked after it! How could I just leave it there?
He lived in my Dad's shed, in a comfy shoe box, and I called him William. Indeed, all my family loved him! It was a lovely surprise when we discovered that William was a beautiful song thrush. One morning, I went to feed him as usual, and I discovered that he was gone! It was a difficult moment, especially for me! William had ventured into another, natural world!
So, the mystery for me will always be... what happened to dear William?
I still treasure a picture I have of him, sitting contentedly on my hand!
I hope he had a happy life, and a successful family of his own!
But of course, I have always cherished my memories of William.
