Not Icarus
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.
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.

Ha Ha – Little Min is so daring………..Wonder if those Ostrich Feathers, safety pins and ribbon will work??
You never know!
I am so glad to see that Min has included safety in her plans.
She tried to think of everything.
very clever and cute! I’m impressed…lots of work here!
Min has a somewhat impish personality, and has no compunctions in converting human household items into objects more suited to her size and purposes…
Oh, Min! Off on another adventure. I do hope she consults some other hittys this time. 😉
She tends to go her own way, as she thinks she knows best. Still she hasn’t made the same mistake twice (unlike Bjork).
I am always amazed when suddenly a series of QH adventures that I had missed pops up- how exciting to see Min’s attempts to re-write the law of gravity!

This is one of my favourite stories!
