I suspect it is too young to fly, and now either it's mother will come get it or it will become a cat toy.

But I did my part in the bird rescue.
I would suggest a nice light spray type mousse. That way, if the bird doesn't like the style when you are done, it can be brushed out and re-done.



















I'm an idiot... I need a nap....

You should mash up some worms and put them in an eyedropper and feed him. Use your food processor.

OK I tried today.

I cut a tree down yesterday evening. Today there was a baby robin hanging around while I was cleaning up the brush. I tried to find some worms to feed him. He finally wandered off

Okay, what is with these birds???

I'm sitting at my desk, which faces the front of the house. I hear this :rustlerustle: :cheep: :rustlerustle:. So I look out the window and there's this bird burrowing into my mulch. I shooed it away, and not a minute later, he's back at it.

So I go out and look and there are all kinds of bird caves in my mulch.

Why are they doing this?
