                                            Strange Thing Encounter



A couple of days before I was studying near my window, I was trying to concentrate on my studies and unintentionally my eyes glanced out to the window. My observation told me that its going to have a thunderstorm in no minutes out there and it actually started drizzling and raining heavily along then. I stepped out to enjoy the blessed weather and I was quite enjoying it that suddenly my eyes stopped on a baby bird sprawling in the water and couldn't flap its wings to fly up properly and in mean time a cat was going to snatch it. So, I ran out,held it in my hands and dried it up with a clothe. It was a baby nightingale,really a cute one. I fed it some rice and make a cozy place in a small shoe box for it. I kept it for the whole night and played with it.
                                  Next early morning I was asleep yet. I heard a lot of birds chirping in a rush, Suddenly,baby bird's father flew into my room from the window and started to fly in circles in all over my room with panic.When his glance stopped at his baby,he flew over him near the box. They both started chirping together more loudly and intensely.
                                             Father bird then flew out again. I didn't have a clue at that time what is going to happen next. I picked the baby nightingale and put it out the window. Then both of his parents flew over it with some food in their little beaks and first fed their baby and then its mother covered it in her feathers and flew it away to their nest. By chance their nest was in my neighbors and I enjoyed the whole moment indeed.

                                     Its was really really interesting for me to see how most of the birds and animals care for their babies like real humans do. How they came with a bunch of other birds to protect themselves and how the baby father brought the food and fed its baby first. And how the mother nightingale wrapped it in her feathers and safely put her baby back in the nest. I never had experienced such a lively moment before. It was worth to keep baby nightingale for a
night.
