Well I must say I've had an interesting day!

In the morning I started off feeling crappy (not feeling too well thanks to this cold or whatever that's getting passed around) and had to go hunting for a deer skull for my latest project; of course my hopes were not high.
Lynsey and my set off for the Recycling Centre in hope to find said objects and shoes for her own project, we went via the union to get some cash out incase we saw anything. As we arrived I noticed a little blackbird sitting outside the Premier shop, looking a little out of it with her beak wide open. Clearly she didn't look too good! I figure she must have flown into one of the windows and stunned herself pretty bad - it's happened so many times with the windows in our living room...sadly not all the birds live that do crash.

I really didn't want to leave her there to get trodden on or to simply just die - being where people walk isn't the best place for a wee thing like her. Lynsey felt bad too but wasn't sure how to handle the situation, so I went down and picked it up - planning on putting it in the bushes to rest in peace of course. It flapped a few times but pretty much just gave up and almost went limp in my hands. The heat of my hands I think helped bring it back and eventually it manage to hold onto my finger with it's feet.
Getting quite a few looks from folk I decided to move into the sun and sit on the pavement so that the wee thing could heat up herself. For a good half an hour she sat quite the thing on my hand basking in the sun and allowing me to stroke her. No fuss at all!
Eventually I put my hand to the ground to see if that would stimulate her, which it did and she hopped off. I'd hoped to hell she wouldn't poop on me, and when I looked down she'd pooped just as she'd hopped off my hand and not a spot was on me - how nice!

I think she was fine afterwards...it was so tempting to keep her but I knew better

In other news - my project started off being a little shit...but God am I feeling good this evening! I really should be writing more on my essay instead of this but nyeh. My tutors as well I think got an earfull of complaints from students in their feedback and are being so nice to us this time...things are finally looking up

I hope you're all doing well
Better get some of this essay done...*sighs* Here's some photos of the blackbird:
