Thankful Thursday November 10, 2022


I am so thankful for my sweet and caring husband.
We heard a bird hit our dining room window and
he went outside immediately and found the
little Chestnut Chickadee. He held it in his
hands for awhile and then brought it inside
so we could put it on the counter under 
my kitchen strainer. It stayed there recovering
for a bit and then Russell took it outside and
it happily flew away! 
Russell has done this many times even with
a large California Acorn Woodpecker!


Russell is my hero!
Thanks Brian for Thankful Thursday!

    WTG Russel and what a great idea to put is under the strainer until it was able to get it's balance.
    That a a very pretty bird.

  9. It happened quite often when we lived in our house with huge windows. The birds bumped into the glass and fell on the ground. We always had to hurry because of our 4 cats ! We put it on the top of our hedge and there it could recover safely !
