What did I say about NOT being a birdy daddy?
Marilyn and I were out looking at the garden when she saw something moving on the ground.
Sure enough one of the babies had fallen out of the nest.
I first thought was to stick it back in. Knowing that the parents were gone, I knew it wouldn't last.
Sooooo, i brought it in, made a nest in a flower pot with grass clippings. And went food hunting.
I don't believe I'm doing this!
Got a nice juicy ant. Then I had to figure how to get it to open its mouth.
Well 3 ants later it quieted down and went to sleep in the pot.
I guess you can call me "birdy daddy."
Any help in house wren raising would be greatly accepted.
