Around 10:30 this morning, my older brother came into my room and told me that there was an injured, possibly dead bird on our driveway. It's one of those little small brown ones that look really cute. I went down to the driveway to check it out and the bird was dead. =( I picked it up, with gloves of course, and took it back to our backyard and burried him. It was such a sad sight. =( I figure the bird's wings were probably injured and couldn't fly to find food or he died of sickness or old age. Whatever it was, I hope he had a good life and is now at peace.

I think you're referring to a sparrow, and it's always difficult to see an animal laying dead anywhere. I always feel bad when I see a dog wandering the streets with its tongue stuck out due to thirst =(

You did the right thing by burying him in your backyard, it wouldn't have looked right after a while if the bird was lying there with tons of ants crawling over its deceased body

the dog usually has their tongue out to release body heat...
They don't have sweat glands.. so that's their main way of releasing.. trapped heat...

This is truly sad. I love birds, except of course when they poop on my car. Thanks for burying it.
