It just lay there, as if stunned, near the window. I thought perhaps it had hit the glass and had winded itself. It must have flown into the house accidentally and was trying to make its way out.
So I picked it up and took it outside, intending to let it go.
It looked at me with its sad eyes.
Then it closed its eyes!
I tried to wake it up. There were no apparent injuries and it didn’t wince at anything I touched.
It was indeed a sad moment when despite my attempts, it refused to be revived.
I left it in a flower pot nearby. Thinking perhaps it would fly away by itself later.
Alas, when I came back, it had indeed left the pot, but only because my helper had taken it away….
