"Pi-Chi" the baby Mud Swallow bird 9 May 2007

This baby Mud Swallow bird's nest had been taken down and abandoned by someone who decided to paint his or her house and could not wait a month until the end of the Swallows' mating season. I hope that I can save it and see it grow strong enough to fly away in a month from now.

Why wasn't he put back in the nest?

The nest had been taken down and thrown away by someone who wanted to paint his or her house. Pi-Chi had been abandoned. I had to make a choice. Leave in the nest, put the nest back somewhere and hope that some birds would feed him or take him in and do my best to save him. I decided to take him in.

Poor little bird, it looks like it was looking for its siblings.

That was very nice of you to take it in!

[ledemonnoir]

Thank you for the nice comment. I think that he was indeed looking for his siblings. They normally stay close to each other to stay warm.
