poor bird / armes Vögelchen

There is not only happyness in #WorldWatercolorMonth. When I came home the other day there was this little dead bird lying on my balcony. So sad…. I have no idea what happened. I also don’t know what kind of bird it was. Size was about that of a chickadee but it was all grey with…
