Returning Wings

Where are the birds that I use to see? Have they been captured and cannot flee? Did they migrate to a warmer bog? Or did they get lost in the fog. A few perhaps gather here to feed Splash in the bird bath and do what they need Perched amongst the lilac branches Goldfinches adding color which enhances. The calling sounds and the fluttering wings Such a delightful joy that it brings, It’s not the weather I can’t blame that Maybe a delayed start on the trip back.
