    Default Unexpected delay in my afternoon plans...

    Ds (7) and I had to do a bird rescue! The shelter said it was a starling chick. They are calling in a wildlife rehab individual to nurse it until it can be released. We just found it on the side of our house and it looked so small and pitiful and there was no nest in sight.

    I wonder if a cat maybe got it or something, Im forever getting after cats around here trying to get the nest.Great teaching of caring and love for animals today with your son.
