Yesterday I came home in the evening to find this small black bird sleeping on my doorstep. (The blue in the photo is my door.) It didn’t fly away, even after I drove up to the house, walked to the porch, went around the house to the back door, got my housemate Hernando and a camera, came back around, and took a photo. (And no, it wasn’t dead!) I’ve never found a bird sleeping on my porch before, so it was cool. We had just had a strong storm pass through, and I think it was looking for a safe place to rest.
That’s a cute little bird! Thanks for being kind to him (her?)! How long did the bird stay? It must have recognized you as a gentle person! Are there any nests around that it might have fallen out of?
Love, Mom
OMG!! The EXACT same thing happened to me today. I was wondering was it purhapse a sign. I felt so badly when I had to move him/her in order to get in.
