Saving little bird....AGAIN! 10/23/2008

As the big kids were getting ready for school this morning Koda came in and said, "Mom come outside with me a bird just hit our window!"

A LOT of birds fly into our front window that is tinted, they must see the reflection behind them and it looks like nature then SMACK!!

Apparently the mind of a bird goes a little something like this-UUGGHH I just hit something hard, maybe if I lay here long enough the pain will go away, OOHH what is that beautiful light I see yes I must go toward the light. Then they die!

BUT, if you go out and pick them up and hold them for a few minutes they usually snap out of it and fly away! So this morning this little bird must have hit hard! Koda had held him long enough for J to shower and get dressed and he still didn't look like he was going to make it. We took him back outside to see what he would do and he just wanted to be held. Sweet J said a prayer for the little guy and Coop said now I know he will fly back to his family! Sure enough a few minutes later when we put him in the tree he flew to the next tree!!
Like they always say, to have the faith of a child....
