Today a little thunk and twitter turned into an 'awwwwwwwwe, can we keep em'.
A little finch mistakenly flew into our plate glass window and it knocked the sense out of him.
Tyler lovingly grabbed an empty shoe box, lined it with a towel and gave the bird some seed to eat. He's hoping after a short rest the bird will feel better enough to fly back to his family, but for now my Fergie shoe box is serving as it's home and a secure location far from the dog's curiosity.
We'll keep you updated on our little yellow wonder and how his healing progresses.
UPDATE: INDEED, after several hours of resting our little friend roused from his drunken stupor and picked his way out of the box. With a little coaxing and some good old fashioned well wishes he flew back through the door and over the house to join his friends and family out in the big world beyond our back yard. Way to go Tyler for your compassion and patience, I'm sure this little bird is glad you were there to save him!
