taking a guess

as i freed the limbs of a tree that was pinned by another that had been struck down during a storm.....as i released it's outstretched arms a vibrant male cardinal flew over to the tree that had fallen and landed on a limb....he turned and fluttered and chirped at me to get my attention then flew away ......he was inches from my hands and wasnt a bit scared....he was communicating with me...i think to say something in relation to the bird i euthanized this morning.....this morning when i viewed the bird, i heard so many birds shouting alert calls and they were clearly upset over their captured friend.....perhaps the cardinal was sending a thank you to me....telling me he apprecited what i did....just my guess...
