Songbird - is it some kind of code or an Earth Spirit?

In my novella "Pawns in the Power of Kings" the spies use a code word - "Songbird." Years before I drew this as part of my Earth Spirits series. It is titled "Songbird" and is done in what I call polychrome pencils. To everyone else that translates into 'soft colored pencils.' I uses a variety of brands some of which are no longer available on the market. Thank goodness I like to buy pencils when I see them on sale, but I confess, the different kinds have dwindled in number over the years.  Now I use more Prismacolor Pencils than anything. 


Check out my novella and see what 'songbird' has to do with this story.
