Rescued baby birds.

Image
Good news! As we were preparing this post we confirmed a loving foster home for five abandoned baby birds just rescued an hour ago. A veterinary hospital found a small cardboard box outside of their front door and could hear the crying pleas for help from the babies. They found four ducks and a chicken inside. Their foster mom is experienced with birds and providing nurturing care to very young animals.
