Last yea...OK, I HAVE to comment on the bird story! Last year we had a very loud family of birds take up residence in our yard. The babies were quite young, and we discovered that one of the parents (we're pretty sure it was the daddy) would hobble around like he was injured anytime someone(or some other animal) would come anywhere near the nest (these birds nested on the ground). It would drag its wing and wail like it was injured, and pointedly lead you away from the nest. If we went near the nest anyway, he would squawk louder and louder, trying to lure us towards him, and away from his babies. We were so fascinated that he was so smart and protective, and it gave us a whole new respect for birds!! Hopefully your bird wasn't just trying to protect his family... I really think that animals have more emotions than we might think!Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11838932184274641182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2125947803085363612.post-53787944095182395032008-06-13T21:56:00.000-06:002008-06-13T21:56:00.000-06:00EW!

I commend you for (initially) wanting to help it and for helping it find it's resting place. I think I would have been throwing up!Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04195333540982881232noreply@blogger.com
