A Bird in the hand .... is now back in the bush. by sunnygreenwood

A Bird in the hand .... is now back in the bush.

This Magnolia Warbler was sitting on our deck, presumably recovering from a collision with a window. My husband put him in a little container where he would be sheltered but still fly away when he was ready. About an hour later, I watched him fly to a nearby tree where he was joined by his mate. According to the bird books, they're regulars in Ontario but it's the first we've noticed them here at our home.

Many thanks for dropping by and of course, thanks for your comments .... very much appreciated!
Oh wow! What a sweety. Hope he's ok now.

Aw, one time a woodpecker hit our front window and i put it in a box and drizzled a little water on its beak and set out some bird seed and after a little while it flew off, it was the greatest feeling!
