Today was, as the header said, an interesting day. First off, it was busy as all hell at work which would be odd for a Thursday normally but it was the fourth so yeah. But the real interesting part of my day was when a wild bird decided to try using the door handle to perch on. She didn't bash into the window or anything like that, but she did startle a customer while he was trying to come inside at the same time. He was a little befuddled by what happened and she kept trying to perch on the handle even though she couldn't balance because of the window. So, I decided to open the door and put my hand under her so she could grip my finger instead and then take off without falling to the ground like I knew she would the instant she realized she was being held...only she didn't fly away. She stayed on my finger for the better part of two minutes while I got to get a good look at her. She only flew away after I started walking her to the safer side of the building. Instant I got around the corner and she saw the trees, she flew off.

It's the second time in my life a wild bird has allowed me the honor of holding it in such a manner.

Anyway, I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July!!
