Baby Bird

The baby bird we found yesterday. He looked pretty healthy, but he was out in the pasture and I figured he would just die or Maddie would find it and eat it so what did we have to lose. So far he is doing well. He eats every 3 hours. As you can see in the picture this is right after he ate. His crop is full. I think he was only a day or two maybe when we found him, he still hasn't opened his eyes. It will be neat to see what kind of bird this is.

Oh, he's itty bitty! We've found babies before but they've always been bigger. We delivered our birds to this place http://www.wildlifecareassociation.net/

He's so teeny tiny. He's is going to think that you all are his family when he opens his eyes.

How's the little guy doing?

Poor little guy I think got too hot. Atleast we had a try of it. Wish I could have seen what kind of bird he was.
