Andy...the bird whisperer

This was the scene yesterday in the front yard. Andy was about to mow, but found this teeny-tiny little feather-free bird flopping around in the grass right under it's nest.



Andy, being so resourceful, called animal control. They said all they could do was put the bird down. How harsh. So then he called the Zoo. They called back about 5 minutes later and told Andy to just pick up the bird and put him back in the nest. The mom might fly away, but she would come back. Sure enough, she did. And the sweet little birdie was happy in it's home with all it's brothers and sisters.


And now to close out the post,here is a sweet picture of Addison working so hard on her toys, sporting her new tennies and a pointy pony tail.


And here is Addison and Lucy watching guard at the front door.

They are such good friends!
