Fly no more, little bird

Description

"The darkness rises from the eastern valleys,
And the winds buffet her with their hungry breath,
And the great earth, with neither grief nor malice,
Receives the tiny burden of her death. "

A verse from "Death of the Bird" by Alec Derwent Hope.


Yesterday I saw a bird dying. He stopped to fly and fell, just like that. Here the poor chaffinch. You were living in the air, you rest now in the ground.





I know I don't post often photographs, even if I take a lot!! But I wanted to try Lightroom, and here is the result! Hope you'll like it.
