Help! Identify this bird I found today, please. I need to find a bird rescue to help with the broken leg and head injury. I already know the one in Boone Co. wont take starlings and crows. Hopefully, the county extension office will help me Monday. Until then, Im dropping water and seeds into the open beak. My sister, Sharon, was kind enough to bring me enough seed to last a few days. The little bird has perked up considerably since I found it in the yard with a broken leg and a small head wound. Hawks are quick and dont usually let go. Cats are equally adept at holding their prey but are easily distracted. If I walk up and say hello to my old cat I rescued in 2005, hell mew in reply and whatever is in his mouth flies out. Tom-Toms obvious surprise is so funny every time it happens. He also is curious to observe whatever Im doing, and has lost a few chipminks and rabbits coming to see whats happening. My dad could tell me all the birds, trees, plants, and wildflowers...only one more reason to miss having him around...
