Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

given the bird

or rather, I wasn't.  There was a newly wannabe flier robin.  It spent most of its time hopping here and there.  When I tried to catch it and relocate it, four robins converged on me and chirped and chatted and tried to intimidate me, as much as they could.  I gave up, as it was clear I was more likely going to hurt it than help it.  Even now they seem to regard me as the predator, despite the fact that I fill the feeder for their piggy butts.
 
The cute little thing sought shelter under a bush during a downpour.  Sadly, it was not inclined to let me watch it or come near it, so --- no photo.  Drat!
