Oh wait, that's not right. This little blackbird and its sibling fell out of the tree the other day. There were some pretty high winds so I'm not sure if they blew out of the nest, if the nest blew out of the tree, or if the neighbors removing shrubs around their house, disturbed a nest.
The other bird is laying under the tree close to the trunk and looks like it broke its neck. The baby bird in the picture seems to have survived.
I have seen it being fed by the mother or father. When I walked up close, a bird swooped down at me. I obeyed and stepped away. The neighborhood stray cat was hanging around the other night but I saw the bird in the morning. My Jenny got up close a couple of times and I told her, "leave it!"
I'm not sure what will happen to the baby bird, but I'm doing what the parents want, leaving it alone and keeping My Jenny and Duchess away.
