Since my scanner's broken, I can't upload any arts at the moment, so here's a li'l' filler image for the moment.
I took this earlier tonight, as the little critter flew in through a bedroom window in our house. It got caught up in one of the curtains, and I untangled it. The li'l'un was completely petrified, but eventually calmed down, so I handed it to my mother to snap the shot! It's a young greenfinch, with incomplete plumage. Because of this, we couldn't tell whether it was male or female.
Upon trying to let it back out the window, it kept hopping back onto my hand and up my arm to try and come inside. ;_; Birds are sooooo adorable...
Taken on my N900 at the spur of the moment; didn't set any fine-tuned settings, so sorry about the quality.

Yuo gotta be careful with little birds.
They don't have a diaphragm so they have to use their chest muscles to breathe.
Holding a bird tightly/not allowing it's chest to expand can cause it to suffocate.
& for every one breath we take, a bird takes two.
That's why it's important to keep the stray bird calm when he gets inside the house or he could die.
Just some tips with wild birds in the house.
He/she is very cute! Where do you live where Finches fly in?

Aye, we know of such. We keep birds, and my mother used to work in an import aviary, so we're very gentle with the li'l' things.
We get them rather often here, in England, just flitting about our garden. However, why this little'un flew through our window at a quarter to midnight is beyond me...

As to be expected, his chest was like a hummingbird's for the first minute or so, but quickly calmed down. Very soft, downy, and light, though. Eventually became quite inquisitive, started looking around, and didn't instantly try to bolt away even when un-held. It was really, really passive. :D
As far as other garden birds we get here, it's mainly small birds; finches, tits, blackbirds, thrushes, magpies and other carrion. Occasionally we get a sparrow-hawk, buzzard or owl in the trees in the garden. We're in a very small town in a secluded cul-de-sac; there's no light pollution or busy roads, so the garden is ripe with wildlife. <3
