Sheluach Haken (Sending away the mother bird)

As heard from Rebb. Rena Tarshish.
Why is the reward of sheluach haken so great?
(Long life.)
When the mother bird is sent off and comes back she flies all around to find her children. She goes to Hashem and complains. “Where are my children?’ Hashem becomes upset. Then, Hashem remembers from this mother bird & asks ” Where are my children?” This big mitzvah reminds Hashem that His children are still in golus and should bring us back to home ,the nest, the Beit Hamekdash, (and to the Holy Land of Israel.)
What a gevaldeke thing!
