This has absolutely nothing to do with low carb (except I was on my way to pour myself a delicious low-carb cup of coffee), but as I stepped into the kitchen about 3 minutes ago (8:00 am now) I glanced down, and there was this fluffy little brown sparrow sitting on the floor!

I thought I'd heard a few odd noises when I woke up to pee last night (drinking all that water before bed!), but just put it down to the assorted nighttime rattles you sometimes get when you live in an old apartment block.

The poor thing looked totally perturbed. I tossed a pillowcase over it and put it out the window. It flew off chirping.

I just had to share that!

Birdie in the House
 
Glad to hear that the birdie was okay. We used to get them come down the chimney that we had for our wood stove in the summer. We would take the stove out. Sometimes too I would get a humming bird in our poch. I would catch them and put them outside. Such little miracles.

Used to live in a 160 yr old Victorian limestone with fireplace. Never had a bird fly in, but I routinely had BATS flitting around! Once a very young squirrel tumbled down also. I couldn't convince the landlord to put a cap over the chimney. Couldn't convince the landlord to do much of anything, so I moved :D
