Stick
Boy and a friend were playing outside and BAM, a baby Mourning Dove fell out of
a tree a few feet from where they were.
A Blue Jay was diving at the baby bird. Teen Son found a cat carrier to keep it in
while we waited to see if it would live and if we could find a home for
it.
We kept it safe and warm until
Oldest Daughter came home with some baby bird food and a special dropper. That baby bird had a lot of spirit and even
with Dakota watching the cage it escaped twice.
Oldest Daughter thought the bird would be safe in my laundry room but in
the morning when we went to check on it, it had escaped its cage and after a
few minutes of panic we found it beside the door. Oldest Daughter and her boy friend are caring
for the baby and think it will be ready to go with his other doves in a few
days.
