Cozy and safe from harm.
The next, their wings spread wide, their spirits soaring, they ventured into the unknown.

" I once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment, while I was hoeing in a village garden, and I felt that I was more distinguished by that circumstance that I should have been by any epaulet I could have worn."

~ Henry David Thoreau
