And so our rather young and still a bit bald adventurer took to the skies.
With a "tally ho" he leapt forth and beat his wings in gay abandonment of a life tied to this solid earth.........................
......................and promptly crash landed onto the ground.
Embarressed and bewildered, young Singalong simply stood there.
For ages.
Until he was plucked from the ground (there are lots of cats around here) and placed into a nearby bush.
He stayed here being fed by his parents, until it was time for sleepimg at dusk.
Mum tried to coax him back into the nest, but he couldn't quite get any height into his attempts at flying, so he ended up repeatedly landing on the floor.
Once again a human hand intervened and plonked him into the nest, where he was joined by mum for a good nights rest.
