<DIV>As we all know Drool works. So I am asking for just a tiny bit for
our baby Robins today. They're momma built a nest under our awning on a
light fixture right outside our front door. They were just born on
Saturday and have quadrupled in size already! Somehow, maybe from their weight,
the light fixture turned this morning and dumped the nest. One baby was
definitely gone to the Rainbow bridge and the other two were still very much
alive but at least one needed medical attention. So after trying to
putting them back in their nest and putting their nest in a nearby tree (did I
mention they fell onto the concrete patio) I called the local nature
sanctuary. No Momma or Daddy in sight. So... Apparently due to the
Migratory Bird Act I can't just take them anywhere I understand. you need a
licence to rehab them. So I called the correct people and they instructed
me to bring them over since one was visibly bleeding from his wing. These
guys are so young - just 5 days old - one's eyes aren't even open yet and they
don't make a sound. Just open their mouths a lot hoping for food. I
couldn't imagine them suffering so I took the 20 minute drive to the sanctuary
and put them into the right hands. Hopefully they will be ok and I will be
able to bring them home to their Momma and relocate them to the tree. The
devastating thing is that they've survived 2 severe storms and now the darn
light fixture gave way and dumped them. I'm hoping just a drop of good
basset drool will make them both well.</DIV>
