The video comes from Milford, Michigan, according to ABC News, which shared the footage on its Facebook page. The snowy background scene and idyllic music make the moment feel even more special as the bird cautiously but intentionally flies up to the woman’s pink glove, lands, and then starts collecting peanuts from her outstretched hand.
