Sure enough, a baby blue jay was on the ground. It was going to through it's normal fledgling but it was on the ground (again normal) but not with two Ridgebacks!!
I put on gloves... and walked towards him. He AND his mama skwaaaaaalked at me. Poor scared baby.
I pet him head and chest and then put him back in the nest.
I checked on him after church and he had perched himself on another limb and he was crying.
I hadn't seen his mama in a while... so I gave him some water... he guzzled it. Then I started reading up on what to feed him if she didn't come back.
A few hours later... I checked on him and he was on a very low branch, near my face and he was trying to nuzzle me. I couldn't resist...
he was happy. Of course, T wanted to hold him too.
He was a little, well, less relaxed about it.
I checked on him before and after work on Monday...
FINALLY, the mama showed up at the tree and she was just looking at me like
"I've got this".. I smiled and quickly backed away.
Check on him again this morning and he's gone. Very blessed... because I just KNOW he made it!!
Love you little birdie!!!! Thanks for making me feel like Snow White!
