Original artwork description:

'Fledglings Revisited' Self portrait of me as a youngster.
As a child there was so many questions, fears and uncertainties, what if ? just say ? why is ? They all seemed so pressing, urgent that it seemed I needed the answers there and then or something dramatic would occur.
I rarely got the answers but as the years rolled by I figured out a few of "life's mysteries".
Grandad said "Put the bird back where you found it" and sure enough the parents heard its cry and coaxed it into the bramble for safety.
"How did you know to do that Grandad" ? "Life's experiences" he said.
