Sometimes we act like birds

The weather today is perfect; sunny, warm, a slight breeze. I decided to ride my bike. So I was just cruising along, humming to myself when all of a sudden, a bird tumbles out in front of me. My heart stopped, my wheels screached, and my eyes bulged as I barely grazed the little guy. I could hear his tweet of terror and I turned around instantly to see if he was okay. I noticed that he had broken his wing and I prayed that it wasn't my fault. I replayed the incident in my head and assured myself that it wasn't... not after remembering how he rolled out in front of me. I couldnt do much to help him. I would have taken him in with me if I had a way to carry him home and if I had a place to store him once he was inside. I left the poor little guy in the grass. "Why on Earth would you hop in front of me like that?" I scolded him. It's just like a bird to throw itself into danger.
