Bird is the word

And it begins…baby bird season. Today we received the first baby birds of the year. This perfect little nest of House Finch nestlings was found on the ground. Although a kind human put it back where it was, unfortunately, for some reason, perhaps predation, the parents did not return. More often than not, when a fallen nest is returned to its original spot, the parents will return to care for their young. Even if the nest is broken or destroyed, you can put it in a small wicker basket and hang it back up. We are always happy to advise on specific situations, so if something like this happens, give us a call. As for these little finches, they are cold and lethargic so will need special care.
