He found his way home (with a little helping hand from the kids). In trying to coax him out of the open door (still favouring a closed window) we were very surprised to see him perch on the edge of the stairs and watch us intently, from about 15 inches away. Perhaps the tamest bird known to man.
Contrary to what it must seem, we do not encourage the domesticity of wild animals. They just seem to flock to us. It’s only a matter of time before we emerge, much like Snow White, to a throng of birds, squirrels, badgers and voles climbing into our open arms, ready and waiting to darn our socks and scrub our floors with little badger brushes. Ahh.
