Cody was out in the yard this evening and found this little bird on the ground. He thought there was soemthing wrong with it, so he came and got me. It is a baby robin that must have fallen out of its nest or something. We couldn't find said nest, but felt it would be safer in a tree than on the ground. So we put it here, and snapped a couple of shots, and hoped it would be ok. Since he is fledged out already, maybe he can make it back to his nest.
Meanwhile, mama robin hovered anxiously...
Scarlett has kept her pinky head down for 26 hours now. We may be out of the woods with her. But the tricky part starts with her next feeding. I'm going to increase the size of her meals. I'll give her a head and shoulder section for a few weeks.
Don't worry, though. The mice are pre-killed. There's no way I'd be so cruel as to cut a live mouse in half!
