The Menagerie: Day 31 - A Cozy Farewell for Our Quail!

Hello guys, it's another great day and Happy New Month to everyone!

This is my entry for yesterday's prompt, Day 31 of 'The Menagerie' by Hive account@cabalen. I just had a bit of time to work on this, and it evolved into a little scene that perfectly captured the prompt's "Cozy final send-off" vibe.

Here's my piece:

My Take: The Will to Fly

The prompt for Day 31 was a "Quail" mailing off an envelope for a "cozy final send-off," complete with a knit sweater and a bag.

For me, this scene came to life with the thought: "Birds that aren't caged always have the will to fly." My character, who seems to have been in 'The Menagerie' (perhaps a metaphorical cage), is finally making their departure. They're mailing off a final note, saying "BYE GUYS" and "I can't stay here forever," ready to explore the world beyond. It's about freedom and moving on to new adventures!

This was a quick piece, but I really enjoyed translating the prompt into this little narrative scene.

Thanks for viewing! Let me know what you think of my quail's send-off!
