Blue Bird

i found this blue bird dead in our backyard last tuesday. i always wondered where the birds bury their dead. do they have a bird cemetery? i haven't had the time to research the name of this bird so he'll be just like the iraq native casualty - no name, no number.

i know this bird because i always see it outside. i was observing the sounds it was making and i know it makes like hundreds of different sounds. i believe they have their own language. i assumed it was a natural death because i didn't see any wounds.

i placed him under the apple tree after. when i came back i noticed another bird singing or was it crying? you know we always identify birds' chirps as music but i know this bird wasn't singing. it was mourning this unindentified blue bird.
