Not Icarus

Min Chats up a Little Brown Bird.

Named after a Bird (Psaltriparus minimus), Min has always had a hankering to fly.  Up in the apple tree, she has found a Little Brown Bird willing to try and teach her.

No feathers.

The L-B-B explains that he learned to fly when his parents persuaded him to jump out of his nest.  Of course, he has a beautiful feathery coat…he thinks probably feathers are a requirement, and suggests Min avail herself of some feathers and try leaping out of a tree.

A lot of feathers here.

The feather duster has so many feathers, no one will miss a couple…

Safety Pins for Safety.

Ostrich Feathers, Safety Pins, and Ribbon!!! Min thinks this will definitely work! She plans for her maiden flight tomorrow, and hopes it won’t rain again.
