Two years ago I commented on how much I love this video. On May 13th of this year (2022) I ran across a baby crow in the middle of the road. Totally helpless and hungry. I did all the things you did. Fed him, taught him to pick up his own food. Then we had him outside while gardening and he would follow us around. He taught himself to fly. No need to teach them. Then one day I patted a tree limb and he hopped up there. Then he started staying outside and coming down for food in the morning. Then it got to where he wasn't so hungry when he came down to visit, which was awesome. Then we'd sometimes see him with other crows, which we so wanted. Then sometimes we wouldn't see him for a day or two. Now, we haven't seen him since July 8th. We miss him terribly, but I'm sure he's off with a band of crows, enjoying his life. Amazing how fast they change. All that in seven weeks. I must say, though, that he took a lot of time to care for, and he ate as much as our cat at the end! We miss you, Jetson!

We saved a common grackle when he fell from a nest two stories up. He was so young he had no feathers. We called him Chicky boom boom as we thought he went boom boom when he hit the pavement. We brought him up over a period of two to three weeks till he was an adult. Smart as a whip, knew his name and like you had fun teaching him to be independent trying to not make him dependant on us. Hardest thing was releasing him to the wild which we did by going away for a weekend. We still think of him years later. Only three weeks but it gave us an appreciation for the intelligence of Chicky Boom Boom and his winged friends and nature in general.

Well, bird poop is really easy to clean. Naturally, If someone got mad at a bird they nurtured and loved for pooping on their car, they'd be silly in that respect for expecting otherwise. I have had many birds and when you raise them, you couldn't care less if they pooped on your head or furniture, cause they are just so loving and look up to you so much, nitty bitty things don't matter, just them and that relationship.

Im watching this as i sit with my baby starling rescue, Lil John, tucked in the nape of my neck sleeping. He had his first few flights of longer than 2 feet today so were very proud. Hes starting to get an attitude with me when trying to move him from off the top of my head or off the keys of my keyboard. He poops everywhere and all the time. You think youre catching on to the signs so you can place a paper towel under neath to catch it but then nope, he throws me a curve ball. I never knew just how much and how quickly i would grow to love and adore him, but just like that, he has my heart. My dogs who i love with all my heart, are feeling the pangs of jealousy and thats hard to see. But, we will all adjust and love one another as if wed always been a family. Ohh, i fed Lil John some icecream and...he loved it!
