Little birdie in a tree...

When I was a wee girl and couldn't fall asleep, my mother sang me a lullaby beginning with those five words. Years later, I sang it to my daughters to lull them to sleep. More years passed, and I was singing it to my grandchildren. I wonder if they will pass it along to the next generation?

Today was an absolutely perfect fall day, and I spent most of it out-of-doors in the park and arboretum. What a blessing that was!

The weekend is here. I hope you have a good great one!

PS: Thank you to Avilove for identifying this bird as a white-throated sparrow.
