While out on our early morning walk with George this morning, we saw a cat acting oddly. It was crouched beside the road in a stalking position and wouldn't move even as an 80 pound dog walked past. Then I glanced down at the ground under a tree and saw a tiny baby bird in the grass.
Dilemma!
We couldn't see a nest anywhere to return it to and no parent birds were to be seen. In most cases it's best to leave baby birds alone, even when they're on the ground, because the parents will continue to care for it. But there was the cat. We were sure the helpless baby would be a snack as soon as we walked away if we didn't do something.
Meet Eggbert.
Eggbert had to come to school with me today and he's been eating like a champ. He stands up and squeals loudly for food every few minutes. Thank goodness he'll be ready to be on his own in a week or two.....feeding out a fledgling is a lot of work!
I couldn't just leave him to die, though, so for the next several days at least I have a new little pal.
Oh, Jennifer! I love Eggbert! I hope he grows and thrives. He is certainly capable of telling you when he is hungry. (All the time?)
ReplyDeleteY'all are so sweet and responsible. What a beautiful thing for you to do.
What a great thing to do!!!
ReplyDeleteI love eggbert. I look forward to seeing him grow.
ReplyDeletehow lovely and gratifying, do you chew and regurgitate into little Eggbert? He is awfully cute! I am so glad you spotted him and scooped him up, I hope he lives to tell the tale!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter adopted a downed bird once upon a time. She had just begun summer vacation and had a job in a factory. Her Eggbert lived in a vacated bird cage and travelled with her, demanding food. She learned about midnight and three a/m feedings.
ReplyDeleteIs Little P your Chief Worm Digger?
ReplyDeleteEggbert is adorable and hungry! You will be a busy bird mama for awhile! I'm so glad you could save him.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to ask: what does Marco think of him? ; )
DeleteI would have done exactly the same! What kind of bird is Eggbert, do you know? If he were here in Germany, I'd think he could be a type of thrush.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you are feeding him worms from your mouth!! How cute he is. Glad he didn't end up as the cat's dinner.
ReplyDeleteOh, Jennifer, I love you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely thing to do.
ReplyDeleteEggbert's mouth looks like a funnel for worms. I hope that with your kindness and understanding he makes it to fledging. Come on Eggbert!
ReplyDeleteVery nice. And hopefully he'll be string enough one day to get back out there, fly threw the town and find that cat and shit on him.
ReplyDeleteI mean, that's what I would do.
what are you feeding him?
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful!
