traumatic?

Boom! bzzz flutter bang bang bang

A goldfinch flew in my open door and smashed into the window, frantic to get back out. It's a wonder he didn't hurt himself... or did he? I was able to catch him before the cat five feet away realized something interesting was going on; two hands cupped lightly (smelling of raisins and keyboard), two steps to the door, open hands, and "bzzzzz peep peep peeep!" fly away.

Then I thought, "I should have taken a picture; the camera's right here," but the little fellow was probably already freaked out enough, without me holding on to him longer than necessary.
