keefie Posted September 18, 2013 Report Posted September 18, 2013 I had a young goldfinch fly into the french windows today and knocked itself silly, so I picked it up and held it till it was able to stand on it's own. I then let it sit on my finger for about ten minutes in the workshop (with the big doors open) and it still didb't want to go, so I took it's picture then stood outside with it - it was another 15 mins before it looked at me, gave a little cheep and flew off. I know I'm a silly sod but I do like the garden birds. bobscroll and Travis 2 Quote

bobscroll Posted September 18, 2013 Report Posted September 18, 2013 Good on you Keith, I did a similar thing with a starling, I saw it flapping about in the canal with a ginger cat hoping it could grab it out of the water, I ran as fast as I could to reach the other side of the canal, When I looked at it in the water it was lifeless, I took in the house in front of the fire and two and a half hour's later it came back to life! I let it out of the front door and off it went, Didn't even say goodbye! "Happy ending" that's what it's all about, Bob keefie and wombatie 2 Quote
wombatie Posted September 19, 2013 Report Posted September 19, 2013 You are no softie you are a good person and I'm sure the bird appreciated the time you took to look after him. It looks as if he is looking at you over his shoulder. CUTE :thumbs: Marg Quote
