Chic-a-dee

In the spring, the chic-a-dees will come down from the mountain. They are trusting little birds. If you hold you hand out with some seeds, they will land on your hand and feed. Their touch is so featherlight and quick. One minute it's there and the next it's gone.

Afterwards, you can't remember exactly what it felt like, only that you remember it was alive.
