I love how I can see the gears and cogs inside the bird's breast and wings...beautiful attention to detail and form.

Wow. I love the detail of not only the artificial bird but also that of the other birds and the aspects of the tree. Very very well done.

does this story happen to have anything in common with the tale of - if memory serves - the Chinese emperor's nightingale? (it was about how a caged nightingale could not sing because it missed its freedom, so the emperor ordered a clockwork nightingale to be made... sadly, I don't remember the rest very well

No, it doesn't. The one you refer to is by Hans Christian Andersen.

you're right, it is

Since you ask... as it happens, this is the second story I've written involving my clockwork bird. The first one, The Mechanical Aviary of Emperor Jalal-ud-din Muhammad Akbar, actually *does* have a link to the HCA Nightingale story. Sort of.
It does not, however, have Stephanie's art, 'cause it's coming out in Shimmer's "Clockwork Jungle" special volume, and Shimmer is a small zine.
